Caravaggio

When I went to Italy in 2007 I made sure to check out all the Caravaggio works that were on our route. I developed a deeper appreciation of the artist after seeing The Penitant Magdalen and Rest During the Flight into Egypt at the Galleria Pamphili in Rome (one of my all time favourite galleries). Caravaggio used the same model in both works. She is Mary Magdalen in one. In the other she is the Virgin Mary.
I was pleased to find this BBC video at Uncertain Times, source of so much Nag fodder:
