Artist: Caravaggio (1571-1592) He was an artist during the time of the art movement Baroque. Caravaggio’s artwork normally worked with a lot of dark gloomy colors. His most useful method in his art was his use of chiaroscuro (the use of light and dark). This helped to make his paintings more intense. His artwork was composed of a lot of portraits of wealthy families, royalty, religion, and a lot of death. His paintings almost looked realistic, like a photograph.
