Pierre Langlumé’s lithograph, “La Magdeleine”, 1825, after Antonio Correggio

(From the circle of, or by) Pierre Langlumé (1790–? [fl.1818–1830])

“La Magdeleine”, 1825, lithograph printed by Pierre Langlumé and published in Paris by Sazerac & Duval (fl.c1824–1827) after a detail in reverse of Antonio Correggio’s (aka Antoine Corrége; Antonio Allegri) (1489–1534) painting, “Madonna of St. Jerome”, 1528, in the Galleria Nazionale of Parma, Italy (see https://useum.org/artwork/Madonna-of-St-Jerome-Antonio-da-Correggio-1528).

Note that Sir Robert Strange (1721–1792) executed an etching with engraving after Correggio’s painting that is very close to the design for this lithograph; see https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/P_1868-0808-3162.
