Synopsis
Raphael (1483–1520) is considered the most important artist of the Italian High Renaissance alongside Michelangelo and Leonardo. In his short lifetime he created around one hundred paintings and numerous frescoes, including nine fresco cycles, on an unsurpassed variety of themes – from sensual female beauties, antique myths and portraits of wealthy Romans and church dignitaries to history cycles and biblical scenes. He produced altarpieces, as well as designing tapestries for the Sistine Chapel. His Sistine Madonna is one of the most frequently reproduced religious paintings of all time.
Raphael was a tireless learner, for whom there could be no standing still, no repetition of tried and tested solutions, but only the constant forward thrust of an inexhaustible imagination. He transformed his central theme, the visionary experience of divine grace, into visible pictorial reality. It was his mature work in Rome, and above all the frescoes in the Vatican Palace, that secured him his place in art history. Admired even during his own lifetime as the most modern artist of his day, Raphael’s mastery would pave the way for Mannerism and the Baroque era.

From the Back Cover
Raffael (1483-1520) gilt neben Michelangelo und Leonardo als bedeutendster Künstler der italienischen Hochrenaissance. In seiner kurzen Lebenszeit schuf er um die hundert Gemälde und zahlreiche Fresken, darunter neun Freskenzyklen, in einer unübertroffenen Themenvielfalt, von sinnlichen Frauenschönheiten und antiken Mythen über Bildnisse wohlhabender Römer und kirchlicher Würdenträger bis hin zu Historienzyklen und Bibelszenen. Daneben schuf er Altargemälde sowie Wandteppiche für die Sixtinische Kapelle. Seine Sixtinische Madonna ist eines der am häufigsten reproduzierten religiösen Gemälde aller Zeiten.
Raffael war ein unermüdlich Lernender: kein Stillstand, kein Wiederholen der bewährten Muster, sondern das ständige Fortschreiten einer unerschöpflichen Fantasie. Sein zentrales Thema, die visionäre Erfahrung göttlicher Gnade, verwandelte er in sichtbare Bildwirklichkeit. Sein reifes Wirken in Rom, vor allem die Fresken im Apostolischen Palast, sicherte ihm seinen Platz in der Kunstgeschichte. Noch zu Lebzeiten verehrte man ihn als modernsten Künstler seiner Zeit, dessen Meisterschaft den Weg zu Manierismus und Barock ebnen sollte.
