[Male Narrator] We're in the church of Santa Maria del Popolo, in Rome and we're looking at one of the most famous paintings by Caravaggio.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] And this is one of two paintings that Caravaggio painted here in the chapel called the Cerasi Chapel, named for the Cerasi family and, in fact, Tiberio Cerasi is buried here in this chapel.발음듣기
대기중
[Male Narrator] The painting itself shows an important story, it shows Saul, who's job it was to persecute Christians, and he was on the road to Damascus when he was blinded by light and he heard a voice.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] And that voice, the voice of Christ said to him, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?발음듣기
대기중
[Male Narrator] Now, that's important because Christ had been in his tomb for three days before he was resurrected and Jonah, in the Old Testament remained in the fish, which is often called a whale for three days.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] So, there is this Old Testament tradition that this is going back to of three days in the darkness before being saved by the divine.발음듣기
대기중
[Male Narrator] And, it puts Saul, who's name becomes Paul, in this tradition that comes out of the Old Testament.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] So, here, we only see that divine supernatural force as light flooding down on Saul.발음듣기
대기중
He's pushed them forward and he's placed them against this deep, dark background so, when elements are illuminated, they stand out against that background.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] And that's what makes it all the more personal, that it's only Saul that hears God's voice.발음듣기
대기중
So, this darkness that this is set in, no architecture no landscape, this tenebrous, this dark style perhaps deriving from the art of Leonardo da Vinci.발음듣기
대기중
But here taken so far by Caravaggio and that darkness eliminating everything else that could distract us from this incredibly powerful moment.발음듣기
대기중
[Male Narrator] It's interesting to think about why this is happening at this particular moment at the turn of the 17th century.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] The naturalism we see here, the way that we're getting the rear end of the horse the dirt on the ground.발음듣기
대기중
The figure of the groom who's taking care of the horse, looks like a man that Caravaggio probably asked to model for him that he met in Rome.발음듣기
대기중
And that naturalism is part of this interest in legibility, in clarity in art that comes out of the Counter-Reformation.발음듣기
대기중
It was alright to have paintings and the Council of Trent spoke to that directly and said yes, paintings had important didactic value within a religious context.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] And, it's really interesting to compare this to the first version of this painting which was apparently rejected by the patron where we see a narrative.발음듣기
대기중
Here, although we do have a sense of a caught moment in time, what we have is a condensation, a distilling of this moment of personal conversion that was very popular among Baroque artists.발음듣기
대기중
[Male Narrator] If we were looking at a Renaissance painting, it would be a more public moment.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] And the space of the painting is confining, the figures take up side to side top to bottom, with very little room to spare and Caravaggio's definitely thinking about our view here as we stand in this chapel and look obliquely across and up at the painting.발음듣기
대기중
[Male Narrator] In the Renaissance, the idea was to create a sense of harmony, a sense of balance.발음듣기
대기중
The largest and most massive part of this painting is the body of the horse and it's at the top.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] And, beneath him, Saul seems very vulnerable, the horse's hoof is lifted up Saul's helmet has fallen off of his head.발음듣기
대기중
There is this sense of the fragility of a human being confronted with the power of the divine.발음듣기
대기중
[Male Narrator] His body is actually a triangle but it's upended and whereas the Renaissance was concerned often with parameatal compositions with creating a stable pyramid.발음듣기
대기중
[Female Narrator] And, there's so much foreshortening here, not only is the body of Saul foreshortened his sword is foreshortened, the horse is foreshortened.발음듣기
대기중
In the Renaissance, we often saw a distance between the world of human beings and realm of the divine.발음듣기
