This bond is further complicated by the fact that Caravaggio has depicted himself as Goliath, while the model for David is il suo Caravaggino ("his own little Caravaggio").
Ova sveza se dodatno komplicira činjenicom kako je Caravaggio prikazao samog sebe kao Golijata, dok je model za Davida bio il suo Caravaggino („njegov vlastiti mali Caravaggio”).
