Parmigianino

Description:

Mannerist painter, draftsman, and etcher, Francesco Mazzola, known as Parmigianino (1503-1540), was an influential artist in the generation following Raphael and Michelangelo. Cecil Gould presents the art and life of one of the most masterful, sensitive, and elegant of mannerist painters. The volume includes more than sixty paintings and frescoes - from religious scenes to subtly powerful portraits - as well as drawings and etchings. The informative text presents the works in relation to their sources, techniques and patrons; as a result, the author offers new attributions and revisions of the standard chronology.
