Caravaggio and the Painters of the North, commissioned by Gert Jan van der Sman, staff member of the Dutch Institute for Art History in Florence (Utrecht University) and Professor at Leiden University, will both analyse the legacy of Caravaggio and offer an idea of the wide range of reactions that his works provoked. The exhibition, and therefore its catalogue, shows a group of paintings that encompass all of Caravaggio’s career, from his Roman period to the dark, moving compositions of his final years, which is shown alongside a selection of works by his most important followers in Holland, Flanders and France, including Nicolas Regnier, Dirk van Baburen, David de Haen, Gerrit van Honthorst, Hendrick Ter Brugghen, Simon Vouet, Claude Vignon, Nicolas Tournier and Valentin de Bolougne.
