Hi Attilios. You need to check the date of birth - you have both 1489 and 1494. PiCo 12:19, 23 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Norton Anthology of English Literature (Vol. 2, 6th edition, page 425) refers to Correggio's dates as 1494-1534. Kevinhowarth 04:33, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

correction[edit]

i tried to edit this page but just didn't succeed! so here's my correction: the town of correggio, where the artist was born and where i currently live, is in the region of emilia romagna NOT lombardy. therefore it is an Emilian town not a 'Lombard town' as you have in the text


Date of Mystic Marriage of St. Catherine[edit]

In the text, there is said in the picture was seen Leonardo`s influence on Correggio`s early style, and the work is dated by 1520. The uploader, but, has written 1526-27. What`s true?--Hans Dunkelberg (talk) 16:48, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Louvre website:
This work was painted for a friend of the artist, the doctor Francesco Grillenzoni from Modena, probably in around 1526–27. The painting remained in Modena throughout the 16th century, before becoming, in the 17th century, one of the jewels of the collection of Cardinal Barberini in Rome and subsequently that of Cardinal Mazarin in Paris.

However, the Louvre Catalogue states The Louvre painting dates from about 1520. This means that the precise dating is totally uncertain and it would be better to state "from the mid-1520s" (done). I have now created a specific page for this work, for a better appreciation.--Smintheus Fellin (talk) 18:27, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
