"Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." |
Venetian Origins: Ceilings are often referred to as the "fifth wall" in today's interior design world, but decorative schemes for ceilings are nothing new. The illusionistic style of ceiling frescoes known in Italian as "di sotto in sù," meaning "from below to above," can be traced to 16th-century Venice. |

The Light Master: Born Antonio Allegri (circa 1489–1534), but best known by the name of his hometown, Correggio, the artist is esteemed for his prowess in portraying luminosity and imparting divine light in his pictures. Considered the leading painter in the region of Emilia-Romagna, he created his greatest art while working in the city of Parma. The most extraordinary was for the octagonal cupola of the Romanesque Cathedral of Parma. Called "Assumption of the Virgin," the fresco was completed in 1530. Symbol of Salvation: Overhead this strip is a portrayal of the Virgin Mary ascending to heaven. Correggio places her on the dome's western side, not at its center, so that she's visible to viewers at the foot of the staircase leading from the nave up to the altar. See more frescoes here. |
