note = {Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio’s life was turbulent and short. He
was only in his late thirties when he died and yet he managed to
achieve tremendous artistic success. A native of Caravaggio, near
Milan, he was born in 1571 and moved to Rome after training with
Simone Peterzano, a pupil of Titian. In the papal city, his talent was
recognized by the influential collector and art connoisseur Cardinal
Francesco Maria del Monte, who promoted his art. Within a few years
Caravaggio became one of the most sought-after painters in Italy and
abroad. His style was so striking and unique that artists from all
over adopted it as their own.       Caravaggio: A Reference Guide to
His Life and Works focuses on his life, his works, and legacy. It
features a chronology, an introduction offers a brief account of his
life, a cross-referenced dictionary section contains entries on his
individual paintings, public commissions his patrons, his followers,
and the techniques he used in rendering his works.},
