Perugia
Raphael was born in Urbino, in the region of Umbria, Italy. He was the son of Giovanni Santi (d. 1494), who was also a painter, and Magia di Battista Ciarla (d. 1491). Raphael's father was his first teacher, but he died when Raphael was only eleven.
When he was about 15, Raphael became an apprentice at the workshop of the painter Pietro Perugino. Perugino was known by that name because he was the most famous painter in the town of Perugia. Perugino was famous not only in Umbria but also in Rome and in Florence, the home of Leonardo and Michelangelo. He had been one of the artists given the important job of painting the Pope's large chapel in the Vatican, the Sistine Chapel.
Perugino was known to have expert ways of painting (technique) and was good at finishing paintings on time. This made him popular with his patrons. He painted some portraits of people alive in his day, but most of his pictures are of religious figures of the past. Some of his paintings are small pictures of the Madonna and Child that could be used in a family chapel for private worship. Because he was famous, Perugino also got lots of work from wealthy patrons and churches, so he painted many very large pieces to go above the altars in churches. To do this, he needed the help of his apprentices.
Raphael was able to learn a great deal from Perugino - drawing, the anatomy of the human figure, paint chemistry, and the technique of putting the paint onto the picture in smooth layers. The people in Perugino's paintings often have sweet, g {"event":"pageview","page_type1":"catalog","page_type2":"image_page","language":"en","user_logged":"false","user_type":"ecommerce","nl_subscriber":"false"} {"event":"ecommerce_event","event_name":"view_item","event_category":"browse_catalog","ecommerce":{"items":[{"item_id":"FAF5310827","item_brand":"other","item_category":"illustration","item_category2":"out_of_copyright","item_category3":"standard","item_category4":"raphael_raffaello_sanzio_of_urbino_1483_1520","item_category5":"not_balown","item_list_name":"search_results","item_name":"parnassus_from_the_stanza_della_segnatura_1510_11_fresco","item_variant":"undefined"}]}} Find Your Perfect Match The top results are exact matches, while the rest are visually similar images curated from our archive.

Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino (Italian:[raffaˈɛlloˈsantsjodaurˈbiːno]; March 28 or April 6, 1483 – April 6, 1520), now generally known in English as Raphael (RAF-ay-əl, RAF-ee-əl, RAY-fee-, RAH-fy-EL), was an Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance. His work is admired for its clarity of form, ease of composition, and visual achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur. Together with Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, he forms the traditional trinity of great masters of that period. His father Giovanni Santi was court painter to the ruler of the small but highly cultured city of Urbino. He died when Raphael was eleven, and Raphael seems to have played a role in managing the family workshop from this point. He probably trained in the workshop of Pietro Perugino, and was described as a fully trained "master" by 1500. He worked in or for several cities in north Italy until in 1508 he moved to Rome at the invitation of Pope Julius II, to work on the Apostolic Palace at the Vatican. He was given a series of important commissions there and elsewhere in the city, and began to work as an architect. He was still at the height of his powers at his death in 1520. Raphael was enormously productive, running an unusually large workshop and, despite his early death at 37, leaving a large body of work. His career falls naturally into three phases and three styles, first described by Giorgio Vasari: his early years in Umbria, then a period of about four years (1504–1508) absorbing the artistic traditions of Florence, followed by his last hectic and triumphant twelve years in Rome, working for two popes and their close associates. Many of his works are found in the Vati Le Virtù e la Legge è un affresco (660 cm alla base) di Raffaello Sanzio, databile al 1511 e situato nella Stanza della Segnatura, una delle quattro Stanze Vaticane. L'affresco delle Virtù fu l'ultimo ad essere completato nella Stanza della Segnatura, probabilmente entro il 1511 come farebbe pensare l'iscrizione sullo sguancio della finestra: JVLIVS. II. LIGVR. PONT. MAX. AN. CHRIS. MDXI. PONTIFICAT. SVI. VIII.. La parete sud, che doveva essere dedicata alla giurisprudenza e chiudere i richiami alle categorie del sapere (con la teologia, la filosofia e la poesia degli altri affreschi), aveva una forma particolarmente irregolare per la presenza di un'alta apertura al centro. Durante la Repubblica Romana instaurata dai giacobini e successivamente nel periodo napoleonico, i francesi elaborarono alcuni piani per staccare gli affreschi e renderli portabili. Infatti, espressero il desiderio di rimuovere gli affreschi di Raffaello dalle pareti delle Stanze Vaticane e inviarli in Francia, tra gli oggetti spediti al Musée Napoléon delle spoliazioni napoleoniche, ma questi non vennero mai realizzati a causa delle difficoltà tecniche e i tentativi falliti e disastrosi dei francesi presso la chiesa di San Luigi dei Francesi a Roma. Al Louvre si conserva la copia di un abbozzo preliminare destinata a una delle stanze con l'Apocalisse come soggetto. Tale rappresentazione veniva di solito associata a un mancato progetto per la Stanza di Eliodoro (Muntz), forse destinato alla parete nord, al posto della Liberazione di san Pietro (Crowe, Cavalcaselle, Springer, Venturi, e Redig de Campos), o alla parete sud, quella della Messa di Bolsena (Ruland, Pastor, Fischel, Steinmann, Hartt e Freedberg), anche in virtù della posizione decentrata della finestra.
