Paolo Veronese e i profeti di Parma .......... 629

PAOLO VERONESE AND CORREGGIO’S PROPHETS IN PARMA

In several of his works, Paolo Veronese drew on the expression and foreshortening of the old prophets and saints painted by Correggio, familiar to him from personal experience and workshop materials. The discussion focuses on the conclusions drawn from the analysis of these connections, which shed new light on the milieu of Venetian painters after the mid-16th century. They were attracted to the old master's illusionism and expressiveness rather than his color.
