Caravaggio's art has been exhibited many times since his death in 1610 but a major gallery in Rome has launched a different type of display - there isn't a single canvas on show.
Video artists have projected the 57 works - which include Jesus being flogged, a man being beheaded and the severed head of snake-haired monster Medusa - onto the walls of the the Palazzo delle Esposizioni.
