The top price was a large Guardi, at over £20 million. Not to be confused with Madonna and Child with the Infant John the Baptist (Correggio, Chicago).The Madonna and Child with the Infant John the Baptist (previously also known as The Virgin of the Sandal) is a 1518 oil on panel painting by Antonio da Correggio. Stylistically it is closest to the frescoes Correggio produced for the Camera di San Paolo and the fact that it was a model for Michelangelo Anselmi suggests that Correggio painted it in Parma. It is the work in which Leonardo da Vinci's influence on Correggio is most obvious - it forms a free variation on Leonardo's The Virgin Home | Athenaeum forums | Artworks by Correggio (154).

For instance, Carl removed some golden curls that were added to Christâ™s hair. However, the change in the appearance of the work is not a radical one, but it is definitely closer to how Correggio intended the painting to look back around 1511 when he created it. It is in remarkably good condition for something that is four hundred years old. The painting is located at NGV International on Level 1 in the European 14th-16th century gallery. Pos Madonna and child with the infant saint john the baptist. Estimate. Double Dagger. Though Correggio's earliest surviving documented work is the altarpiece of the Madonna of Saint Francis in the Gemäldegalerie in Dresden, painted 1514-15, several works can be assumed to predate this on the basis of style.4 The considerable size of the work (299 by 245 cm) and the fact that it was commissioned for the largest church in his native town, San Francesco in Correggio, suggest that the artist must have already established himself as a figure of some repute. Amongst the works which must predate the Virgin of Saint Francis but postdate the Washington Madonna and Child are three d St John the Baptist was the patron saint of Maria's father-in-law, and as her brother and father were both lawyers, St Jerome was also included because of his association with the law. In this image, heavenly light and clouds surround the sitting Madonna, who holds the Christ child in her arms. Below the Madonna kneels the figure of St John Baptist, dressed in wild animal skins and holding a cross made from reeds, pointing towards Christ. Raphael was king of the Madonna theme, and in The Madonna and Child with Saints it is easy to see the influence of Raphael's ideal beauty of form. The painting is so rich and sensuous and is a great example of how Parmigianino was able to show great emotional intensity in his paintings through the use of lighting effects, elongated forms and rich detail. The Madonna and Child with the Infant John the Baptist (previously also known as The Virgin of the Sandal) is a 1518 oil on panel painting by Antonio da Correggio. Stylistically it is closest to the frescoes Correggio produced for the Camera di San Paolo and the fact that it was a model for Michelangelo Anselmi suggests that Correggio painted it in Parma. It is the work in which Leonardo da Vinci's influence on Correggio is most obvious - it forms a free variation on Leonardo's The Virgin of the Rocks. ^ (in Italian) Giuseppe Adani, Correggio pittore universale, Silvana Editoriale, Correggio 2007.

Available at: https://commons.library.stonybrook.edu/differentia/vol5/iss1/14 This document is brought to you for free and open access by Academic Commons. It has been accepted for inclusion in Differentia: Review of Italian Thought by an authorized editor of Academic Commons. For more information, please contact [email protected], [email protected]. The Eloquent Eye: Roberto Longhi and the Historical Criticism of Art David Tabbat Bernard Berenson once observed that Vasari's greatest strength as a writer was that sure instinct for narrative and char­ acterization which made him a worthy heir of Boccaccio. Lest his readers misconstrue this appreciation of Vasari's "novelistic ten­ dency" as a denigration of his work when judged by purely art­ historical criteria, Berenson added that the author of the Lives "is still the unrivaled critic of Italian art," in part because "he always describes a picture or a statue with the vividness of a man who saw the thing while he wrote about it." 1 To a remarkable degree, these same observations may aptly introduce the work of Roberto Longhi (1890-1970),2who is often regarded by the Italians themselves (whether specialists or inter­ ested laymen) as the most important connoisseur, critic, and art historian their country has produced in our century.

  • City Walk - Parma
    CITY WALK - PARMA I Those who say Parma say Parmesan cheese and Parma ham. Of course we will soon tell more about these delicacies, but the city itself first deserves all the attention. Because in addition to the culinary heritage, Parma can be proud of a fascinating history, which has made the city into a vibrant, atmospheric and sometimes even fairytale place. Particularly under the rule of the Farnese family, Parma grew into a stately city, with beautiful houses and monuments, artists of level and brilliant music. Fortunately, a large part of the atmosphere - and of the cultural heritage - has been preserved, so that you feel back in time in a few centuries. On the previous picture you see, for example, the campanile, the bell tower, the Duomo, and the magnificent Baptistery, Parma's great pride. Until 1606, Parma also had an eye-catching tower, with many different layers that seemed to have sprung from the fantasy of a dreamy artist, who seemed to have shaken some other frills out of his sleeve at each layer. Yet the tower is really built. With its more than one hundred and thirty meters he was a symbol for the city of Parma. That must have been an impressive sight. Perhaps the enormous height was calculated too optimistically by the artist who designed the tower, because in 1606 the tower collapsed. Unfortunately he has never been rebuilt, but fortunately Parma still houses enough other eye-catchers that you will discover during this City Walk, from the pastel-colored Do you want to stay in Parma? A stylishly decorated room awaits you at B & B Al Battistero d'Oro, with a bed that looks so attractive that you can book a one-night trip to dreamland.

  • Antonio Allegri Detto Il Correggio 1489 - 1534
    ANTONIO ALLEGRI DETTO IL CORREGGIO 1489 - 1534 L’ARTISTA Antonio Allegri detto il “Correggio” nasce a Correggio, da Pellegrino e Bernardina Piazzoli degli Ormani, nella seconda metà del Quattrocento, presumibilmente, secondo storici e critici, nel 1489. I nome di Antonio Allegri, compare per la prima volta nel 1511 quale padrino a Correggio di un neonato di casa Vigarini, e la notizia assume un certo valore in quanto non si hanno altri documenti relativi alla la prima giovinezza dell’artista. “La famiglia Allegri discendeva forse da un Allegro, cittadino libero, che nell'anno 1329 prestava giuramento di vassallaggio ai Signori di Correggio. Altri vogliono che il capostipite del pittore sia da ricercarsi al tempo della Contessa Matilde, o da un Allegri di nome Pietro, patrizio reggiano vissuto nel sec. XIII. Certo è che il sicuro capostipite della casata è Giacomo Allegri, nonno di Pellegrino, vivente nel 1446, come appare da un rogito di quell'anno. La famiglia Allegri apparteneva alla piccola borghesia. Pellegrino negoziava panni e tessuti in genere. Non si conosce se avesse bottega stabile; forse passava di casa in casa come ambulante. Nei rogiti, il nome di Pellegrino è preceduto dall'appellativo di Maestro, titolo non disprezzabile che veniva dato ai membri della minuta e piccola borghesia. La madre di Antonio, Bernardina, apparteneva pur essa a famiglia borghese, ma di una borghesia più elevata e di ciò fa prova, fra l'altro' il fatto che gli Aromani possedevano un sepolcro in S. Francesco, al pari delle famiglie più cospicue di Correggio. A Pellegrino Allegri non mancavano certo i mezzi per sostenere la famiglia.

Tre di questi centri, MantovaMantova,Mantova Parma e FontanellatoFontanellato, vennero proprio allora impreziositi e resi unici dai lavori di tre pittori insigni: Andrea Mantegna (Isola di Carturo, Padova 1431 ca. – Mantova 1506), Antonio Allegri detto il Correggio (Correggio 1489 ca. – 1534), e Francesco Mazzola detto il Parmigianino (Parma 1503 – Casalmaggiore 1540). Su queste tre destinazioni è dunque impostato un itinerario che suggeriamo di percorrere soprattutto per poter ammirare tre camere dipinte che non è esagerato annoverare tra le più belle stanze del mondo: la Camera degli Sposi (o Camera Picta ) affrescata dal Mantegna nel Castello di San Giorgio a Mantova tra il 1465 e il 1474, la Camera di San Paolo decorata verso il 1519 da Correggio («il primo che in Lombardia cominciasse cose della maniera moderna », sentenziò nel 1568 il Vasari) in una Parma non ancora capitale (i Farnese vi si sarebbero infeudati nel 1545) e il Camerino di Diana , che Parmigianino dipinse nella piccola corte dei Sanvitale a Fontanellato nel 1524.
