Caravaggios skugga

Caravaggios skugga 2022

6.47

Caravaggio är en omtalad och uppburen men också mycket kontroversiell konstnär. När han målar sina berömda tavlor, ofta med motiv från den kristna mytologin, låter han prostituerade och kriminella agera modeller. Caravaggios vana att bära svärd och hans vilda leverne på gator och tavernor gör att han hamnar på kant med rättvisan, särskilt sedan anklagelser om att han har mördat en rival börjar cirkulera. Kyrkans män har redan ögonen på målaren eftersom de är kritiska till det i deras mening vanvördiga sätt på vilket religiösa figurer avbildas i hans konst. De skickar ut sin agent L'Ombra (Skuggan) för att sätta sig in i Caravaggios handel och vandel. Kyrkans utredare blir dock mot sin vilja alltmer insyltad i Caravaggios affärer, på liv och död.
