Correggio – Famous, yet produced works of a disparately mixed moral and philosophical range of subjects from religious to mystical to mythical to sensuous and erotic paintings of nude women and girls. Was he searching? Was he growing? Was he man-pleasing and/or just trying to earn a living? Also very interesting, though, that he was actually born right there in Reggio Emilia…..over 500 years ago.
we did see some of Antonio Correggio’s work in the churches here, but this happens to be just a sculpture in the village of Correggio, near Reggio Emilia. One of his most famous works is on the ceiling of a church in Reggio Emilia, not allowed to be photographed, unfortunately.
Oh, ok. I was wondering why this was a sculpture and he was “a painter” and yet you titled this Corregiio. I thought maybe he worked in different mediums.
Beautiful!!
