Cecco del Caravaggio, the model pupil

An itinerary of about 40 works for the first world exhibition dedicated to Cecco del Caravaggio (1580 - 1630), born Francesco Boneri, the most mysterious and brilliant of Caravaggio's direct pupils. The exhibition brings together, for the first time, about 20 autograph works, of the no more than 25 that make up his catalog. Through important national and international loans, including works by Caravaggio, the itinerary highlights both authors from whom Cecco drew inspiration and also artists he influenced. In the year of Bergamo Brescia Italian Capital of Culture Accademia Carrara reopens to the public following a major museum renovation project.
