In "The Calling of Saint Matthew," the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, better known simply as Caravaggio, throws light and shadow into a dramatic encounter. Christ, bathed in a shaft of golden light, reaches towards Matthew, a tax collector surrounded by his worldly possessions of coins and ledgers. The other figures around the table react with surprise and curiosity, some with suspicion as Matthew, his hand still hovering over the money, contemplates his newfound calling. Caravaggio's signature use of chiaroscuro, the stark contrast between light and dark, not only enhances the drama but imbues the scene with a gritty realism. He portrays the tax collectors not as holy figures, but as ordinary men, highlighting the transformative power of faith that can touch even the most unlikely individuals. The painting's emotional intensity and unconventional portrayal of religious figures solidified Caravaggio's reputation as a revolutionary artist who defied artistic norms.
