Sketches Of The Lives Of Correggio And Parmegiano is a book written by William Coxe in 1823. The book provides a detailed account of the lives and works of two of the most famous Italian Renaissance artists - Antonio Allegri da Correggio and Girolamo Francesco Maria Mazzola, better known as Parmigianino. The book begins with a brief introduction to the Italian Renaissance and the artistic movements that emerged during this period. It then delves into the lives of Correggio and Parmigianino, exploring their upbringing, education, and artistic training. Coxe provides a detailed analysis of the artists' most famous works, including Correggio's frescoes in the Cathedral of Parma and Parmigianino's Madonna with the Long Neck. He also examines the influence of other artists and art movements on their work, such as the influence of Leonardo da Vinci on Correggio's style. Throughout the book, Coxe offers insights into the artists' personalities, their relationships with patrons and fellow artists, and the social and political context in which they worked. He also discusses the impact of their work on subsequent generations of artists and the wider art world. Overall, Sketches Of The Lives Of Correggio And Parmegiano is a comprehensive and engaging account of two of the most important artists of the Italian Renaissance. It is a must-read for anyone interested in art history, Renaissance Italy, or the lives and works of these two great artists.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
