Caravaggio paintings found in French church

In one of France’s most exciting artistic discoveries of recent years, two paintings by the 16th century Italian artist Caravaggio have been found in a church in the central town of Loches. <i>Pilgrimage of Our Lord to Emmaus</i> and <i>Saint Thomas putting his finger on Christ’s wound</i> were discovered in 1999 under the organ loft in the church of Saint Anthony.
