Basket of Fruit, c. 1595–1596, oil on canvas, Pinacoteca Ambrosiana, Milan. Caravaggio (Michelangelo Merisi or Amerighi) was born in Milan, where his father, Fermo (Fermo Merixio), was a household administrator and architect-decorator to the marquess of Caravaggio, a town 35 km (22 mi) to the east of Milan and south of Bergamo.
