Please note: Artists not classified as American in our database may have limited biographical data
compared to the extensive information about American artists.
Correggio was born Antonio Allegri, but he is known as Correggio from the name of the small town in northern Italy where he was born in 1494. Most of his work was done in the nearby town of Parma where about 1524 he was commissioned to decorate a wall of the Church of the Annunciation. The fresco he painted is now a ruin. The use of light was Correggio's chief contribution to art, admired in his time and of lasting influence. He has remained astonishingly popular (showing 500 of 1559 characters). |
