Carrier Gallery, Columbus Centre

"De Simone has created a comprehensive representation of some of Caravaggio’s most famous paintings. Works like Narcissus and Judith Beheading Holofernes have been reimagined in photographic form, as though capturing a stolen moment between the master painter and his models.
