Italian artist Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio was born September 29, 1571. This is a portrait by another artist, but we see this face in several of Caravaggio's paintings, including Medusa, Dionysus, the beheaded Goliath, an onlooker in "The Taking of Christ," and others. Our family always enjoys seeing his paintings in museums that we visit.
