Raphael’s career falls naturally into 3 phases and 3 styles, first described by Giorgio Vasari: his early years in Umbria, then a period of about four years (1504–08) absorbing the artistic traditions of Florence, followed by his last hectic and triumphant twelve years in Rome.

Velázquez’s painting inspired the Screaming Popes by Francis Bacon. Bacon deconstructs the confidence & spirituality of man & the power of religion via the portrait. To see just how powerful Velázquez’s image is, compare it to Raphael’s. One is paint, one is life!
Raphael's most well-known masterpiece is The School of Athens. What significance does this 500-year-old fresco have, which presents so many thinkers, for us as #artists?
This week @CanvasNMA discusses Raphael’s masterpiece: https://t.co/iMKVgXV4tk
Wonderful details. Recently restored: Raphael’s Leo X and the Two Cardinals at Palazzo Pitti.
Velázquez’s painting inspired the series of Screaming Popes by Francis Bacon. Bacon deconstructs the confidence & spirituality of man & the power of religion employing the portrait. To see just how powerful Velázquez’s image is, compare it to Raphael’s of a predecessor.
I was always wondering who was the man with the helmet in Raphael’s School of Athens.. Alexander the Great or Alcibiades?
Or, perhaps Alexander is the figure on the right of the fresco, walking up the steps away from Diogenes. Any suggestions? 🤔😶

Raphael’s Sistine Madonna (1512) is famous for its impish cherubs at the base of the painting, watching the action above. But they’re not the only witnesses ~ you can see many angels’ faces hidden in the cloudy background to the Madonna herself

Raphael’s “School of Athens”
- Now symbolizing ‘the marriage of art, philosophy & science’, at the time, the purpose was merely sheer determination & supposed rivalry. Throughout this was history, meaningful values & inspiring figures

Raphael’s drawings can be described as rational and systematic (see the grid?).
His techniques set the precedent for drawing conventions to this day. #Raphael500
"The Prophets Hosea and Jonah" (c. 1510), part of “Raphael and his Circle.”
“Raphael and His Circle” also includes 9 drawings by his closest collaborators and followers. Together, they show the collective nature of Raphael’s later activity and his influence on the next generation of Italian art. #Raphael500

I’ve been playing SoulCaliburIV for a bit on PS3 for nostalgia and I never realized how much I adored Scheherazade 💕‼️ I know she didn’t have a unique moveset since she shared Amy’s moveset with Raphael’s speed and power but I liked her character.
