2 works across 2 institutions
Milan holds 2 works by Caravaggio across 2 institutions, including Pinacoteca di Brera and Pinacoteca Ambrosiana.
Caravaggio's dramatic chiaroscuro — figures emerging from deep shadow, lit as if by a single candle — is an effect that depends on scale, and his canvases are large. Standing in front of a major Caravaggio in Rome feels like an encounter rather than merely a viewing.

Planning your visit to Milan
Milan's major art sites are well connected by metro. The Pinacoteca di Brera is in the Brera district (M2 to Lanza), while Santa Maria delle Grazie — home to The Last Supper — requires advance booking months in advance. Leonardo's Last Supper has very limited viewing slots; book as early as possible.
