Caravaggio: a Study of Man Bathing
Caravaggio: A Study of Man Bathing
"Amor Vincit Omnia
(Love conquers all)"
M. Caravaggio
He said: Turn back the drapes,
this requires an early morning light....
He said: How rare...that pervasive
primary color.
He said: There was dew left on the skin
from the bath.
He said: I have painted holy men!
He said: The brush wasn't wet enough.
He said: Notice that triangle of sable
below the navel? A difficult
color...
He said: I never saw Matthew and Paul
like this.
He said: There's no mistaking his aura.
He said: Turn more to the right.
He said: If I were a woman--
I would love him too.
