Item description from seller

, The Beagle Press. I was in the Raphael Rooms in the Vatican Museum on a cold winter's day. Raphael's genius was evident everywhere and one could tangibly feel the influence of his contemporary, Michelangelo Buonarroti, as the latter was decorating the nearby Sistine Chapel.
