CORREGGIO AND PARMA, DISCOVER THE GREAT FRESCO MASTERPIECES WITH ARTEMILIA!
Have you ever heard of a painted garden hidden inside an ancient Benedictine convent? Of the banquets and of the amiable conversation that took place under a painted pergola, rich in verdant fronds, lit by the light of the fire, surmounted by the figures of Diana and her entourage of putti in the middle of a hunt?
Come and discover the mysterious wonder of the Room of the Abbess and of the great fresco masterpieces made by Correggio in Parma.
Every Saturday afternoon, Artemilia Guided Tours in Parma and Emilia Romagna offers a Parma walking tour dedicated to Antonio Allegri, the painter born in Correggio who created some of his greatest masterpieces in Parma.
The guided walking tour traces the biographical and artistic events of the painter’s life and is dedicated to the great fresco works made by Correggio in Parma: the Room of the Abbess inside the convent of Saint Paul, among the most refined pearls of the Italian Renaissance, the Church of Saint John the Evangelist and the dome of the Cathedral.
Come and discover Parma and Correggio’s masterpieces with Artemilia Guided Tours in Parma and Emilia Romagna.
