About this artwork

Caravaggio, an Italian artist, had a profound impact on Baroque painting with his realistic portrayals and dramatic lighting techniques. In the year 1599, he created a piece called 'Basket of Fruit'. This artwork represents a wicker basket filled with different types of summer fruits. Interestingly, most of the fruit has been consumed by worms and is in poor shape, emphasizing the natural deterioration of everything. Many scholars interpret Caravaggio's basket of fruit as a symbolic representation of the Church.

About the artist

Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571-1610) was an Italian Baroque painter who revolutionised the art of his time with his dramatic use of light and shadow. His works, which often depicted religious scenes, were characterised by a naturalistic style and intense emotion. Caravaggio's personal life was turbulent, and he was known for his violent behavior. He was also a master of tenebrism, a style of painting in which most of the image is in darkness, with only a few areas of light. Caravaggio's influence on the Baroque period was immense, and his works remain some of the most iconic in the history of art.
