The Tenebrist

By Jenny Ashford

"From the moment I first looked upon his striking and clouded features, his dark eyes brimming with passion, intensity, and hellish fire, I knew he was destined to come to ruin. I want to commemorate him as a man, as an artist; yes, even as a criminal. I set down the story for myself, for the world, so that all of us may come to some late understanding of the man they call Caravaggio." Lauded genius, tortured madman, fugitive murderer...the painter Caravaggio lived a tragically short life treading the line between heaven and hell. This fictionalized account, told by his beloved acolyte Mario Minniti, is a sordid tale of art and adoration, of power and passion, of fame and infamy, of lunacy and violence, illustrated by the stunning beauty of the painter's legendary works.
