Caravaggio: A Life in Three Paintings

Caravaggio painted with a raw intensity that broke with tradition and scandalized his contemporaries. In this film, a National Gallery curator explores his tumultuous life through three of his paintings. It traces how his focus on nature, drama and light transformed European art even as his violent temperament drove him into trouble. Insightful and vivid, it brings both the artist and his revolutionary style into sharp focus. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
