Caravaggio loved strong women & was friends with local ladies of the night - a number of whom sat for his paintings. His Judith with the Head of Holofernes (1598) is a prime example of his empathy with women at a time when they were seen as mere chattels
One of my favourite images by him is this Rest on the Flight into Egypt (1596). I love its ethereal quality and the individual figures including the exhausted & maternal Virgin Mary. It is in a private collection in Rome
Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571-1610) was born in Milan & triumphant in Rome, the artist was one of the most influential in history. The picture is of The Taking of Christ (1602) from the National Gallery in Dublin. Let’s take a look at this influential painter.
The painter had an understanding with children. Here we see one of his greatest watercolours. His niece & ward, Violet, is shown playing with her dolls on her bed. The @NGIreland has some wonderful watercolours by him, including this one.
Another theme was depicting Dublin streets. He did this in such a way as to bring the past to life & give an idea of Victorian & Edwardian life in the Capital. Tea in the Garden is one of the most beautiful pictures in @TheHughLane
From Antwerp he went on to paint in Brittany. That part of France was a magnet to Irish artists including Roderic O’Conor & Joseph Kavanagh. There he was exposed to Impressionist landscape painting.
Washing on the Ice (1900) is one of Halonen’s greatest works. It applies the lessons he learnt from Gaugin on Post Impressionism & applying them to the Finnish Landscape. The Lynx Skier (1900) & Pioneers (1900)
