Dr Lucy Davis is Curator of Paintings at the Wallace Collection, where she has overseen numerous exhibitions and published widely on the collection. 

She has had a profound interest in Caravaggio's paintings since her time as a graduate student at the Courtauld Institute, and the artist featured prominently in her doctoral thesis.

She has led many study tours on Caravaggio on site in Rome and in other parts of Italy.
