Caravaggio. The Complete Works (XL)

One of the most rebellious and compelling figures in art history, Caravaggio is reconsidered in all his complexity in this comprehensive TASCHEN edition.

Caravaggio: The Complete Works presents a detailed catalogue raisonné bringing together the artist’s entire body of work. High-resolution reproductions create an almost physical encounter with each painting, while the large-format pages reveal his mastery of light and shadow, the dramatic intensity of his figures, and the radical realism of his compositions in striking close-up detail.

The book examines Caravaggio’s career across five major chapters, tracing his journey from the struggles of his early years in Rome to his first commissions, growing fame, and the techniques that would transform the course of art history. Particular attention is given to his revolutionary use of light and naturalism, through which even religious scenes appear immediate, tangible, and intensely real.

More than an art book, this edition also serves as a portrait of the artist himself. Caravaggio’s legendary character—defined by a violent temperament, a life spent on the run, and an unconventional creative practice—is explored alongside the works that made him one of the most influential artists of all time.
