ROCKY'S ITALY: Rome - Caravaggio's "Crucifixion of St. Peter" and "Conversion of St. Paul"

- Located in the Augustinian church of Santa Maria del Popolo in Rome, Italy, the Cerasi Chapel contains two paintings by Caravaggio - the “Crucifixion of St. Peter” and the “Conversion of St. Paul.” The paintings were commissioned by Monsignor Tiberio Cerasi, who was the treasurer general of Pope Clement VIII, in 1600. Curiously, Cerasi had asked a different painter named Annibale Caracci to paint the altarpiece of the chapel, which is executed in stark contrast to Caravaggio’s style.

Saw them a few times in person. Spectacular!
Great video, but I understand that the church at Piazza del Popolo is closed for renovations and will not reopen until November, 2024, sfortunatmente.
We were there , thank you , but I have searched the church Santa Maria del Popolo not because of Caravaggio but for the i con of Virgin with two rings
I have to make a few comments. Caracci's style is Roman Mannerism, very much under the influence of (the by then dead) Michelangelo. Rocky correctly says that Caravaggio INTRODUCED Tenebrism to Rome, while there is a common misapprehension that Caravaggio invented it. He didn't. There are excellent tenebrist paintings that were made 120 years before Caravaggio was born, and he learned it from his teacher in Milan. What Caravaggio did use, uniquely for Rome, was the Northern use of mirror projections to get his realism.
