Episode 280 - Caravaggio's "Burial of St. Lucy"

from Rebuilding The Renaissance

After his daring escape from the island of Malta, Caravaggio went to Siracusa, Siscily. There he painted one of his most haunting works – the "Burial of St. Lucy." An oppressive yellowish light illuminates the macabre burial of the early Christian martyr whose head almost looks detached from its body.
