D. Assumption of the Virgin. The named fresco was painted by Correggio to decorate the dome of Cathedral of Parma, in Italy; the painting took nearly 8 years to be completed, becoming the inspiration for the di sotto in su style of decoration. The style was largely used by Baroque artists and Correggio himself, consisting in the use of foreshortening (a technique that makes the object to appear smaller than it is), to create internal decorations for churches that gives the illusion of perspective or deepness in what is basically a flat space.
