OR
Caravaggio’s brilliant career in the early 17th century was often marred by violence, duels and even murder. Explore his work in Rome and travels to Naples, Malta and Sicily as he tried to evade the law and seek redemption while influencing a new generation of artists throughout Europe who came to be known as the Caravaggisti. He would die on the beach outside Rome, never gaining forgiveness or knowing his impact. Bring your own snacks.
