Description
The painting, "The Calling of Saint Matthew," by Caravaggio is an intense and dynamic scene featuring a beam of divine light illuminating the figures in the center. A vibrant contrast between illuminated faces and deep shadows creates a dramatic atmosphere as Jesus calls to St. Matthew from afar. The gestures of all present indicate that they are awestruck at the life-changing moment before them.
