Caravaggio

The title of this piece is David with the head of Goliath c1610. The medium that he used is oil paints on the canvas. The size of this painting is 125cm x 101cm. Caravaggio made this painting in Galleria Borghese, Rome, Italy around about 1910. He made this painting represent about David and Goliath the story where a David and goliath. Goliath was a giant that got toking down by David. In his time he moved around cities and towns a lot because he was in a lot of fights. He accused of murder and fled from Rome because someone had place a price on his head. This piece of painting is a portrait. The piece made a dark background to show the image more bold because the only light you see is the person and the head making it show out.

The piece makes me feel like it was a big fight that they had and someone won in the end of the fight showing that they more power than the other person who lost and died in the battle losing their head. This show that he lost his body because it is not with the head and you see blood coming out.
