This title continues the fantastic "Art Classics" series, by featuring painters of the Rennaissance and Baroque periods. Caravaggio was the subject of a major retrospective in London, in 2005, and is one of the most popular of old masters. Low price point has made the "Art Classics" the series of choice for students and art lovers alike. The next four titles in this series include a preface by a renowned art historian; a critical essay on the artist's life and art; descriptive captions on the 50 full-color reproductions on the most important paintings of the artist; a timeline of the most important events in the artist's life; a "Writings" section with excerpts from noted art historians; a list of the museums that hold his works in their collections; and a recommended reading list of additional publications on the artist. Highly respected and renowned Italian art historians provide a preface for each title.
