Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571-1610).

Caravaggio was a highly regarded painter of the early baroque period and is by many regarded as one of the founders of Roman baroque painting.An innovation of his was the combination of light and dark in a painting, also known as chiaroscuro technique.

The motif of the coin shows Maria Magdalena taken from his painting "Repentant Magdalena".The image of Maria Magdelena occupies most of the inner circle..

Around the edge of the inner circle, running from nine o'clock to six o'clock is the inscription “SAN MARINO • CARAVAGGIO”.
