Gifted at drawing and painting, Francesco Mazzola, known as Il Parmigianino (the little Parmesan!), seems to have been born, in the age of Mannerism, under the sign of ease.

The son of a painter, from childhood he enjoyed all the artistic innovations of northern Italy, but also those of Florence and Rome and those of Parma, his hometown. Equipped with this baggage (Correggio, Michelangelo, Raphael, etc.), he went to the Eternal City where, barely nineteen years old, he seemed to everyone the reincarnation of Raphael. He touched on the sublime in his countless sketches and projects, but, demanding and never satisfied, never achieved anything. Too anxious to achieve the greatness of his elders, unconscious of having achieved it, he missed his objective as a professional by only rarely completing his great pictorial undertakings.

Introduced by essays on the artist's personality, his technique, his style and his enthusiasts, this work presents his most beautiful works preserved at the Louvre which "make anyone who looks at them fall in love" (Fanno innamorar chiunque le riguarda, Ludovico Dolce, 1557).

Exhibition Parmigianino (1503-1540). Drawings from the Louvre, musée du Louvre from December 17th 2015 to February 15th 2016.
