Crucifixion of Saint Peter by Caravaggio: what it depicts
Crucifixion of Saint Peter by Caravaggio
Three men and a cross
Peter asked to be crucified upside down, unworthy to die as his master had. Caravaggio paints the mechanics of it: one man pulls a rope, one lifts with his back, one crouches under the beam with the soles of his dirty feet toward us. Their faces are largely hidden. Peter's is — an old man's, lined and furious, twisting to look past them, out of the picture. The executioners are not cruel; they are working. That is the horror of it, and the point.
The Cerasi Chapel
Painted for the Cerasi Chapel in Santa Maria del Popolo, Rome, as the pair to the Conversion on the Way to Damascus, so that the two founders of the Roman Church face each other across the altar: one at the beginning of his call, one at the end of it.
