The Final Years

Caravaggio, who was often arrested and imprisoned, murdered a man in a duel then went on the run. He finally died on a beach of fever contracted after a mistaken arrest. All in all, it cannot be said to have been a dull life.
His exhibition surfaces at the National Gallery, London for what must be one of the highlight shows of 2005 in the UK. From February 23rd. Exceptional historical works.
