More from Caravaggio
"He would not admit that a good painting could be made without a model."
"All works, no matter what or by whom painted, are nothing but bagatelles and childish trifles... unless they are made and painted from life, and there can be nothing... better than to follow nature."
"He was always ready to pick a quarrel or engage in a fight."
"I have no respect for those who paint without having seen."
"All work is good work if it is well done."
