| book description |

An exploration of Parmigianinoâ€™s greatest Roman painting, illuminating his dynamic process of invention and the dramatic story around its creation. Â Parmigianino (1503â€“1540), whose nickname means â€œlittle man of Parma,â€ was the leading painter in Parma after Correggio, and is celebrated as one of the originators of Mannerism. The Vision of Saint Jerome is his first, and only, major public undertaking from his brief period in Rome. Â This book explores the artistâ€™s time in the city until the dramatic events of the Sack of Rome in 1527, and places The Vision of Saint Jerome in the context of Parmigianinoâ€™s career and legacy. Featuring a selection of key surviving preparatory drawings for this altarpiece, the publication reveals Parmigianinoâ€™s inspired artistic process. Â Tracing the history of Parmigianinoâ€™s masterpiece after its arrival in England, the texts also provides an illuminating account of the paintingâ€™s conservation and of the artistâ€™s reception in nineteenth-century Britain. Published by National Gallery Global/Distributed by Yale University Press
