Into The Limelight: Caravaggio Comes To Bengaluru
Opening to visitors today at the NGMA, the painting will be in the city until July 6. Immense care has been taken in how the painting is displayed, in an arched grey niche invoking Baroque architecture. The lighting, too, is deliberate yet simple, complementing Caravaggio's signature use of the chiaroscuro technique of using intense light and dark contrasts to create depth and drama. Tagliaferri explains, 'The illumination is only from the top left, all of Caravaggio's paintings are illuminated this way – it is a sort of divine light. We also ask visitors to look at the paintings slightly from the left to recreate exactly what he imagined.' Along with viewing the painting, visitors can learn more about the legendary Italian artist's life through an interactive VR set-up feturing material from Rome's Galleria Borghese.

Singer Sia and Netflix star Harry Jowsey were seen holding hands during a dinner outing on Saturday, July 19, in Los Angeles, sparking rumors of a new celebrity couple. The two were photographed outside Italian restaurant Ca'Del Sole, looking relaxed and close as they left the venue. Sia wore a black two-piece outfit with a matching blazer and leopard-print ankle boots. She styled her signature platinum-blonde hair in two braids. Jowsey opted for an olive blazer with matching pants and oversized sunglasses. This public appearance has led fans to wonder: Are Sia and Harry Jowsey dating? Sia recently filed for divorce in March 2024 Sia, whose full name is Sia Kate Isobelle Furler, filed for divorce from her husband, Dan Bernard, in March 2024, after two years of marriage. The former couple shares a baby named Somersault Wonder Bernard. Sia is also a mother to two teenage sons, whom she adopted in 2019. The singer has kept her personal life private in recent years but appears to be enjoying new company alongside the popular reality star. Who is Harry Jowsey and what's he up to now? Harry Jowsey is best known for appearing on Netflix reality shows such as Too Hot to Handle, Perfect Match, and Dancing with the Stars. He was most recently linked to actress Lucy Hale. Earlier this week, Netflix announced a new dating docuseries starring Jowsey called Let's Marry Harry. The show will follow Jowsey's journey to find love, with help from Call Her Daddy host and producer Alexandra Cooper. 'I'm looking forward to doing this alongside one of my best friends, Alex Cooper. She is a big sister to me, and I know she'll help me to not be a silly sausage while keeping me grounded,' Jowsey said in a statement to Tudum. Here's what Harry said about love and relationships In a May 2024 interview with US Weekly, Jowsey opened up about wanting a serious relationship. 'I just want to have a girlfriend and grow old together and be us and have a little family,' he said. 'Being in a relationship is so special, and I really missed that feeling.' He also discussed his podcast Boyfriend Material, where he gives and receives advice on relationships. 'Hopefully, I can get married, and then it turns into daddy advice,' Jowsey joked. With Sia's divorce still fresh and Jowsey gearing up for a dating show, it's hard to say whether this is a new romance or just a friendship. Either way, the sighting has sparked curiosity.

The 'Barbie' alum wore a strapless dress she has previously been spotted in: the Elephant Tapestry Mini Dress by Kristin Mallison, which retails for $675. As per 'People', Robbie had her hair down in beachy waves, parted down the middle, while Ackerley also kept things casual and breezy in a simple button-down shirt and shorts. The couple's Italian balcony sighting comes after they welcomed their first baby, a boy, in November. Since welcoming their son, Robbie and Ackerley have been spotted out and about a few times, including during a beach appearance. In April, the new parents were spotted spending time on the Gold Coast in Australia with friends. The beach sighting came as Robbie was on break from filming Wuthering Heights on location in the U.K. alongside Jacob Elordi. In March, Robbie was spotted on the set of the Emerald Fennell-directed adaptation of the classic novel (set to hit theaters in 2026) in an extravagant bridal look, complete with a cinched corset and long, tulle train. Since welcoming her baby boy, Robbie has been keeping busy with work, and 'enjoying motherhood', a source close to the star previously said. The source earlier told 'People', "Margot has several projects lined up next year. She wants to rest now and spend time with the baby'. Around the same time, another source said the couple was 'settling into being parents'. The insider said, 'They waited a long time to get pregnant, so it was almost unbelievable when the baby actually arrived'.
