Nice to see your name appear again, Caravaggio.
I wondered whether you might have gone to Rome. (I think that that is where your namesake's paintings have just gone on extended display.)

Hi John,

Yes, you're quite right but I wasn't there!

The opening paragraph of an article in the Telegraph yesterday read:

"More than 10,000 art lovers flocked to a 36-hour viewing session of the Baroque master painter
Carravaggio in Rome at the weekend."

The mis-spelling continues in the penultimate paragraph. The journalist wants shooting...

Regards,

Caravaggio
