"If he could, " writes Arsene Alexandre, "Correggio would have painted his religious pictures with undraped figures; but as this was impossible, he did his best to make up for it by splendors of color and light. It is evident, however, that he found his greatest delight in painting mythological subjects ; Correggio 37 and no man who loved flesh and light as he did can be considered unhappy when he has painted such pictures as the 'Leda, ' the 'Education of Cupid, ' the 'Antiope, ' the 'Io, ' an...d the 'Danae. '" MADONNA WITH ST. SEBASTIAN ROYAL GALLERY: DRESDEN /^ORREGGIO painted this picture in 1525 for the altar of the Chapel \^J of St. Geminianus, in the Cathedral of Modena, by order of the Con- fraternity of St. Sebastian, a company of archers, who gave him the commis- sion in fulfilment, it is said, of a vow made after the plague had visited that town. It represents the most perfect period of Correggio's art, but has lost much of its original freshness, having suffered severely from repainting and varnishing.
