Caravaggio’s Beheading of Saint John the Baptist from 1608 as a bold exhibition poster. A monumental scene of baroque tragedy.
Description
This exhibition-style poster presents Caravaggio's largest altarpiece with striking typography reading CARAVAGGIO, THE BEHEADING OF SAINT JOHN THE BAPTIST and 1608. The executioner, witnesses and a horrified servant are arranged in a stark prison courtyard under dramatic light. The museum-poster format gives this dark masterpiece a contemporary edge. A powerful piece for serious collectors of baroque art.
