"Assumption of the Virgin (detail 2)" is a segment of the larger fresco masterpiece by the Italian Renaissance artist Antonio Allegri da Correggio, commonly known as Correggio. This particular detail is part of the grandiose fresco that adorns the dome of the Cathedral of Parma, Italy, which Correggio completed between 1526 and 1530. The fresco, titled "Assumption of the Virgin," is celebrated for its dynamic composition and the illusionistic effect that Correggio achieved through his pioneering use of foreshortening and perspective.

The "Assumption of the Virgin" depicts the moment when the Virgin Mary is assumed into heaven and crowned by Christ. The entire composition is a swirling mass of figures, including apostles, angels, and other heavenly beings, all witnessing and participating in the celestial event. In "detail 2," viewers are presented with a closer examination of the intricate elements that make up the whole, showcasing Correggio's skill in rendering the human form with a sense of movement and grace that was revolutionary for his time.

Correggio's work is characterized by its sensuousness and the soft, almost ethereal quality of his figures. The use of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, helps to create a three-dimensional effect that makes the figures appear to emerge from the dome itself. The fresco is also noted for the way it engages the viewer, drawing their gaze upwards into the unfolding divine drama.

The Assumption of the Virgin is widely regarded as one of the masterpieces of High Renaissance art and is a testament to Correggio's influence on later artists, particularly in the development of Baroque ceiling painting. "Detail 2" of this fresco allows art historians and enthusiasts to focus on the nuances of Correggio's technique and the emotional intensity of his work, contributing to a deeper appreciation of this remarkable piece of Renaissance art.
