Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. xix, 218 pages illustrations, 110 plates : 30 cm. owner's inscription. FOREWORD : not AM under the impression that the name Correggio, universally familiar as it is, does today evoke in the mind of the ordinary cultured Englishman any very distinct image, or any great enthusiasm. It is to him a rather vague concept, which he cannot satisfactorily visualize. The names of the other four in the conventional quintette of great Renaissance artists, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael and Titian, call up a much clearer picture; he can place them more or less exactly in their context of place and time. But Correggio's reputation has been passed down from the middle of last century, when it was at its height, and taken on trust, in the absence of any determined effort to explode it. This feeling of uneasiness about Correggio's position in the hierarchy is due to a number of causes and circumstances. The pre-Raphaelite reaction against the High Renaissance naturally shook his pre-eminence, as it did that of Raphael. Ruskin hardly mentions him and that with disapproval. The swing back from the pre-Raphaelite position, even the revived appreciation of the baroque, which might, one would have thought, have rehabilitated his reputation, did not do so. His art seemed to belong neither to the period of the High Renaissance, in which he lived, nor to that of the baroque, which it anticipated in so disturbing a manner. People have, therefore, tended to avert their eyes from this enigmatic phenomenon and interest in Correggio's life and works has not kept pace with that devoted to his great contemporaries. The present work does not, of course, aim at a revaluation of Correggio's art in general or attempt any appreciation of his greatness as a painter. The admirer of Correggio may even, I fear, be disappointed that the enthusiasm, which he himself feels for the artist, finds little actual expression in the pages which follow. He must be content to believe that the undertaking of this work is evidence of such enthusiasm. To give expression to it with the eloquence of a John Addington Symonds or an Adolfo Venturi is not within my capacity; to pay tribute to Correggio's greatness in conventional and hackneyed phrases would be offensive to his memory. This book, as its title makes clear, is concerned with the artist's drawings, and his paintings are spoken of and reproduced in explanation of the drawings. It would no doubt have been more satisfactory, from the point of view of the ordinary reader, that the book should have dealt with the whole of Correggio's work, frescoes, oil-paintings and drawings. But to produce such a comprehensive study would be a particularly formidable undertaking. A large part of my life has been spent in the study of drawings and in contact with them; it is necessarily from this angle that I approach Correggio. An exact knowledge and appreciation of the paintings is, I am very much aware, a prerequisite to the study of the drawings. Nevertheless those whose concern has been primarily the study of paintings do not always seem to be equally successful in their judgement of drawings and the approach to Correggio through them should have its value and contribute to the illumination of his art in general.…

Cloth. Zustand: Near Fine. First edition. A first edition of Arthur E. Popham's fascinating study of the drawings of the renowned sixteenth century artist Antonio da Correggio. Arthur E. Popham was a renowned British art historian, renowned for his catalogue work at the British Museum. Antonio Allegri was the leading Emilian painter, and one of the greatest Italian artists of the Renaissance. He is often considered as the pioneer of illusionistic fresco decoration, but also painted many influential altarpieces and smaller scale religious paintings. This work not only explores more generally Correggio's technique and methods, but also provides a comprehensive catalogue of Correggio's drawings, and an incredibly detailed contextual and artistic study of the following works Drawings for the Cupola, Apse and Frieze of S. Giovanni Evangelista, Parma Drawings for the Del Bono Chapel in S. Giovanni Evangelista, Parma, and other Works Drawings for the Cupola of Parma Cathedral Drawings for the great Altarpieces Drawings for the Mythological and Allegorical Paintings This work also provides a fascinating study of Correggio's contemporaries, followers, and imitators.
