Female Martyr with Two Angels
Female Martyr with Two Angels is a c.1523-1524 oil on panel painting by
Städel Museum in Frankfurt, to which it was donated in 1913 by Baroness Emilie Margarethe Beaulieu-Marconnay, member of a family of bankers and art patrons in the city.[1]
Two early copies survive, one in the
pesanti
and re-paintings on the Frankfurt work. All art historians except Copertini (1945-1950) and Frölich-Bum (1953) now hold the Frankfurt work to be autograph.
Freedberg dated the work to around 1524 based on comparison with the
Correggio, a painter with a strong influence on Parmigianino's early works such as that in Frankfurt.[2]
