Who was Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio?

Caravagio fled Rome because he was wanted for murder. He arived in Malta in 1607 and painted the beheading of St. John the Baptist. He was arested after a year and fled to Sicily only to die two years later.

Spooky, you probably mistake him for Michelangello Buonarotti who sculpted the famous David and Pieta and painted The Sixtin Chapel. He is known as Michelangello.This Michelangello from the question is known as Carravagio

Always heard him referred to as "Michaelangelo". I didn't know his surname.

His drawings are amazing! All muscular guys with No Beer bellies.
