    • Caravaggio’s Friends & Foes

      26 May 2010 - 23 July 2010
      Caravaggio’s Friends & Foes

      Caravaggio was hailed as a genius by his supporters but regarded as an abrasive upstart with blood on his hands by his enemies. His break with artistic tradition and dramatic use of light inspired a generation of Caravaggesque artists. Whitfield Fine Art marks the 400th anniversary of his death with a major exhibition featuring paintings by his friends and followers and by those who were his foes providing both a re-assessment of their work and fresh insight into Caravaggio himself.
