| Summary | "Correggio" by Estelle M. Hurll is a collection of art descriptions and interpretations written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the life and works of the Italian Renaissance painter Correggio (Antonio Allegri), aiming to familiarize the public with his masterpieces, particularly highlighting the selections of his frescoes and easel paintings primarily from European galleries. The opening of the work sets a scholarly tone, starting with a preface that addresses the lesser-known status of Correggio's art compared to other Italian masters, explaining that most of his treasures remain undiscovered by many art enthusiasts. Hurll emphasizes the significance of Correggio's unique approach to color and chiaroscuro, stating that these elements were pivotal in his artistic success. The introduction provides insights into Correggio's character as an artist and highlights the technical qualities that defined his style, such as his joyfulness and preference for vibrant, youthful subjects, which establish the groundwork for understanding the themes and techniques explored in the subsequent chapters detailing his notable paintings.
