Caravaggio was a brilliant artist who defied the aesthetic conventions of his time; his realistic portraits of the poor, the aged, criminals, and ordinary people would have a profound effect on generations of painters. Possessed of an equally defiant temperament, Caravaggio was on the run from the law at the time of his mysterious death. In Caravaggio, New York Times bestselling author Francine Prose offers an enthralling account of the life and work of one of the greatest painters of all time.

Born in 1571 near Milan, Michelangelo Merisi (da Caravaggio) was a successful artist, protected by his many wealthy and influential patrons. But he was also a man of the streets and fled Rome in 1606, after apparently killing another man. He spent his last years in exile, at once celebrated for his art and tormented by his enemies. In 1610 he received a pardon from the Pope, only to die on his way back home. With passion and sensitivity, Prose tells the story of this brilliant yet flawed man who was a true artistic innovator.

Francine Prose is the author of fifteen books of fiction, including the highly acclaimed Goldengrove. The novel A Changed Man won the Dayton Literary Peace Prize, and Blue Angel was a finalist for the National Book Award for Fiction. The nonfiction work Reading Like a Writer was a New York Times bestseller. She lives in New York City.

"Matching gorgeous prose to gorgeous artworks, Prose responds to each image as a moment of theatrical revelation, sensual or spiritual, and frequently both." -- Boston Sunday Globe

Cute Basic Tank That’s Easy to Dress Up or Down
Color: Taupe, Size: Small
This ANRABESS sleeveless tank top is a really cute basic to have in the closet. I bought it in 3 colors. I like the fitted ribbed style because it gives it a little more shape than a plain tank, but it’s still simple enough to wear with just about anything. The scoop neck is flattering without being too low, and the slim fit makes it easy to tuck into jeans, shorts, or wear under a jacket/cardigan. It’s one of those tops that works for everyday outfits but can also be dressed up a little with jewelry or nicer pants. The material feels comfortable and stretchy, and it has that casual summer look without feeling sloppy. I’d say it’s great for warm weather, layering, or just throwing on when you want something easy but still put-together. Cute, flattering, and comfortable — a great basic tank that I can see myself wearing a lot.

Great, well-fitting basic!
Color: Beige, Size: Medium
I love, love, love these basic tanks. They fit true to size. They’re really soft and comfortable and they’re such a great value. I have them in at least five or six colors. They look great on their own or under a cardigan.

Light weight, not thick or bulky, versatile, and perfect!
Color: White, Size: Small
Throw out all the tank tops you own cause this is the only tank top you will need from here on out. It is absolutely perfect. Let’s just say they understood the assignment. It is form fitting and pairs perfectly with lightweight sweaters that might be slightly sheer or even the new crochet type of open sweaters that need a tank underneath. It is the perfect stretch, perfect material and dressy enough to be worn on its own and upgraded with some jewelry and some classy jeans and has just enough sheen to look dressy and not like you’re wearing a workout top. I love , love this and it is my go to tank!

Comfortable, flattering wardrobe staple
Color: White, Size: Small, Color: White, Size: Small
I’ve tried a lot of basics, and this ANRABESS sleeveless scoop neck tank exceeded expectations. The fabric feels soft and breathable with a nice amount of stretch, and it has a flattering fit without being too tight or restrictive. The scoop neckline is classic and versatile, making it easy to layer or wear on its own. Stitching and construction appear well made, and it held up nicely after washing with no shrinking or loss of shape. Great quality for a basic essential, and a piece I can see reaching for often. Highly recommend.

The length is perfect. Nice and long.
Color: Yellow, Size: X-Large
These tanks are the perfect length. I love how they fit and feel. I bought these in 5 colors. Although, if you want to keep them long, I suggest hanging them to dry. Putting them in the dryer shrinks the length about 2 inches.
