An Artful Journey: Raphael’s Sublime Poetry and Caravaggio’s Revolution
April 24 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm

Poetry and Revolution: Raphael, Caravaggio, and the Art That Changed Everything
Two artists. Two radically different visions. One unforgettable legacy. This session brings together the serene beauty of Raphael and the dramatic intensity of Caravaggio in a dynamic exploration of artistic genius cut tragically short. Drawing from Raphael: Sublime Poetry at The Met and Caravaggio: Revolution at the Mint Museum in Charlotte, we’ll examine their opposing styles, personalities, and creative philosophies—and how each reshaped the future of Western art before the age of forty. Expect beauty, tension, and a deeper understanding of how art evolves through contrast.
Friday, April 24th, 10:30 – 12:00
