How low can I get in my confidence level...

This is what I expected (roughly) to be said in Spanish after the previous sentences, but it isn't really what is actually said in the Spanish. In other words I am translating the meaning of "para que lo que está invisible en la pintura aparezca": *to allow the invisible element of the paintwork to appear/become apparent//to render the invisible element of the paintwork apparent*

Alternatively it could be interpreted as meaning "para que la pintura vuelva invisible", in which case: *to render the paintwork invisible* but that makes even less sense to me.

Perhaps we need to work on "invisible" also - I wonder if it is intended to mean the "unviewable"?

My interpretation is that this refers to Caravaggio´s capacity to become the invisible into visible through the paint. But this ‘invisible’ things are also uncomfortable, obscene at the time.. things we were not supposed to paint back then, and so, ‘not to be seen’

Hope this will help, greetings.

This is no more than a guess; even less certain than Noni's...but I'm basing it on the deconstructive and destructive nature of the artist's work:
