His painting feature is characterized by numerous subsequent artists and subvert the traditional religious subjects through increasing the ingdepicting of ordinary people. His bold innovation of drawing technique, strengthen the light into a sense that the contrast of light and shade, emphasis on the content of painting real sense make his work very dramatic.Eventhough this trait based on his sympathy to the very ordinary civilians, the story of "The Bible" is elaborated carefully. In the double contradictions of Caravaggio paintings reflect the opposition Christian doctrine from the masses, like Renaissance predecessors advocated "humanist" instead of "divinity", and also reflected Caravaggio has religious complex.
