$The Last Caravaggio - at the National Gallery \u2014 with Aliki Braine$

We'll look at Caravaggio's last known painting, and other works that inform our understanding of his art and his influence on other artists
About this Event

Take an in-depth look at works by Caravaggio and his contemporaries at the National Gallery with the London Art Salon's artist photographer and art historian Aliki Braine.

Caravaggio's last great work painted two months before his demise will be on display in London for the first time in 20 years. This guided visit to the National Gallery will introduce this favorite artist by looking at other works by him on display in the collection and also consider how Caravaggio's characteristic use of highlights and shadows influenced subsequent artists.

We are limiting the numbers to 16 people so that our guests can feel comfortably distanced.

Meeting point: We will meet at 10.20 (for prompt start at 10:30) outside the National Gallery's Getty entrance.

Any changes to the meeting point and other details will be emailed to you - please add [email protected] to your email address book / safe senders

Please note: Due to our small group size, we cannot provide refunds within 14 days of the tour.
