Raphael, master painter and architect of the Italian High Renaissance, best known for his Madonnas and for his large figure compositions in the Vatican. His work is admired for its clarity of form and ease of composition and for its visual achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur.

A true titan of the Italian Renaissance, Raffaello di Giovanni Santi (1483–1520)—better known as Raphael—matched ambition with lyricism to create works with both intellectual heft and emotional depth, a necessary skill in the complex political landscape of Renaissance courts.

Raphael translated the High Renaissance ideals of beauty in breathtaking paintings that made his images iconic, and his name a legend.

Raphael (1483-1520) was an Italian painter and architect who is regarded as one of the greatest of Renaissance artists alongside Michelangelo (1475-1564) and Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519).

While painting the rooms of the Vatican Palace, Raphael incorporated portraits of the most influential artists of his time, including Michelangelo, Leonardo, and himself.

Raphael died on the 6th of April 1520 at the age of 37 and was buried the next day in the Pantheon. He was a famous, wealthy, and popular renaissance personality and his funeral was very well attended attracting large crowds.

Raphael (Raffaello Santi) was born in Urbino where his father, Giovanni Santi, was court painter. He almost certainly began his training there and must have known works by Mantegna, Uccello, and Piero della Francesca from an early age. His earliest paintings were also greatly influenced by Perugino.
