An Evening with Andrew Graham-Dixon: Caravaggio - A Life Sacred & Profane

Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio lived the darkest and most dangerous life of any of the great painters. The worlds of Milan, Rome, Naples, Sicily and Malta, through which he moved, were those of cardinals and whores, prayer and violence. Through the course of this tempestuous life he managed, despite himself and his circumstances, to create some of the greatest paintings in the history of art. 

Art critic, author, journalist and presenter Andrew Graham-Dixon is one of the UK’s leading figures in broadcasting and has spent a decade piecing together the scraps of evidence left of the artist's life. His insights and analyses will form the basis of his lecture.
