We often talk about the violence, the madness of Caravaggio and his criminality, I am in love with this painting where we see such bursts, the effronteries are nestled everywhere even in the skin of a fruit and it is sublime . It is fascinating to see saints with black nails, dirty and dusty feet rubbing shoulders with the firmament; true beauty is never perfect. Of this bold and nonconformist painting, which dares to put a horse in the place of Saint Paul to describe his conversion, which restores a Madonna by the corpse of a drowned woman picked up in the Tiber, of this strong and impolite, carnal painting, from this divine darkness emerges a bright light, a truly sacred intelligence.
