The Lute Player (c. 1595-1596) - Caravaggio

Coloiriage created from : The Lute Player (c. 1595-1596), by Caravaggio (1571 - 1610).

This work by Caravaggio depicts a young musician absorbed in playing the lute, surrounded by music scores, a violin and a delicately lit bouquet of flowers.

The intimate scene is built up by the subtle chiaroscuro characteristic of Caravaggio, highlighting the skin tone, textures and expressiveness of the face.

Produced around 1595-1596, this painting illustrates both the artist's technical virtuosity and his taste for musical subjects, blending sensuality, realism and the poetry of the suspended moment.
