I am just curious….which Caravaggio is your favorite? Here is a list of them:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronology_of_works_by_Caravaggio
I am guessing there is some documented basis for this conclusion, but based on the picture included it does not appear to be a Caravaggio to me:Previously unknown painting by Caravaggio discovered in Britain
I'm not really familiar with Caravaggio work but I'm fond of Georges de la Tour, whose paintings are known to reflect the Baroque naturalism of Caravaggio
Caravaggio is one of the most famous painter of the Baroque period and many of his works are in Rom.
My favorite is Portrait of Fra Antionio Martelli mainly because I think it is very lifelike and the look of deterrmination on the monk's face reflects what I think a member of a military order would look like in real life. I would love to break bread with the monk and share war-stories.
