Explain the historical background of the picture

Historical background
Caravaggio painted the painting “Sick Bacchus” in the first year of his stay in Rome. The artist left his homeland Milan in mid-1592 and moved to the “Eternal City” on the seven hills. According to many historians, it was during this period of his life that the painter became seriously ill and spent six months in the hospital of the Church of Santa Maria della Consolazione. Most likely, the disease that shook Caravaggio’s health was none other than malaria. This is the conclusion the art researchers came to when they analyzed the appearance of the main character of the painting. Yellow fever (another name for the disease) occurs when the liver is severely damaged. As a result, due to the increased level of bilirubin, the color of the skin and eyes will change.

What is the name of the depiction and who is the artist?

Medusa, Caravaggio
Explain the historical background of Medusa by Caravaggio

In order to appreciate Caravaggio’s painting of Medusa, it is important to know its background. A gorgon is a terrifying female creature in Greek mythology. Medusa was a gorgon with a mane of serpents for hair. She was so repulsive, that whoever looked at her, supposedly turned to stone. Perseus, the Greek hero, was given a shield by the goddess Athena, so that he could avoid looking at her, as he decapitated or beheaded her.
Medusa in Caravaggio’s painting is portrayed at the moment of self-recognition. Realizing that her head and body were no longer one, and that she was still conscious, Caravaggio depicts the horror in her eyes. Medusa is a wonderful example of Caravaggio’s focus on physiognomic, or facial expression in his paintings. Medusa shows an intense level of realism, and Caravaggio uses dark and light contrasts so effectively that Medusa looks three-dimensional.

Gender shift
The traditional social roles that are ascribed to men and women in society are becoming less socially binding. Gender is no longer the determining factor it once was. Changing role models and breaking gender stereotypes are causing a radical change in the economy and society towards a new culture of pluralism.
Cultural pluralism
Cultural pluralism is a term used when smaller groups within a larger society maintain their unique cultural identities, whereby their values and practices are accepted by the dominant culture, provided such are consistent with the laws and values of the wider society. As a sociological term, the definition and description of cultural pluralism has evolved over time. It has been described as not only a fact but a societal goal.

Globalization
The mega trend globalization describes the growing together of the world population. While international economic relations are subject to fluctuating national interests, science and business, culture and civil societies around the world are in an increasingly closer free exchange of ideas, talents and goods. These connections are perhaps the most important driver of human progress.
Connectivity
The connectivity mega trend describes the dominant basic pattern of social change in the 21st century: the principle of networking based on digital infrastructures. Networked communication technologies are fundamentally changing our lives, work and economics. These new technologies create new lifestyles, behavior patterns and business models.
Individualization
The central cultural principle of the current time is reflected in the mega trend of individualization: self-realization within a uniquely designed individuality. It is driven by the increase in personal freedom of choice and individual self-determination. The relationship between ‘I’ and ‘we’ is also renegotiated. The importance of new communities that will give individualization a new face in the future is growing.
