In praise of boy art...

"Only with Michelangelo Merisi, known as Caravaggio, was there a sudden flood of fully-realized sexual--especially homoerotic--art. Not since antiquity had "boy art" been realized with such assurance."
-Colin Eisler, "O Caravaggio" chapter in "Masterworks in Berlin: a City's Painting Reunited"
