The Parma School of painting in Italy thrived in 15th and 16th century Italy with the help of the Farnese family. The main members of the school were Correggio and Parmigianino. The school, particularly Correggio, was influenced by Leonardo da Vinci and the Mannerist movement with its subjective and emotional approach to painting. Also indebted to Michelangelo, the human figure was a central theme, often depicted in an exaggerated or elongated manner.
