Вражаюче дослідження творчості Караваджо!
Ця книга стала для мене справжнім відкриттям у світі мистецтва. Автор, Костантино д'Орацио, майстерно поєднує історію з мистецтвом, розкриваючи таємниці, які ховаються за полотнами Караваджо. Його стиль письма захоплює з перших сторінок, а глибокий аналіз картин дозволяє побачити їх з абсолютно нового ракурсу. Я дізнався багато цікавого про життя художника, його боротьбу з критиками та його унікальний підхід до живопису. Незважаючи на деякі недоліки в перекладі, які незначно впливають на загальне враження, книга вражає своєю змістовністю та глибиною. Рекомендую всім, хто цікавиться мистецтвом, історією та особистостями, що змінили світ!
