Leonardoand Michelangelo attract throngs of visitors for special exhibitions and invoke passion in ArtHistorians. Raphael, if mentioned at all, is remembered chiefly as the painter of insipid religiouspictures, without the creativity and human insight of Leonardo, or the heroic nudes and power ofMichelangelo. Raphael’s works deserve to be revisited. Raphael was a painter of tremendousvirtuosity and energy, wide ranging in his talents, and capable of absorbing and transforming thelatest stylistic innovations. Take a journey back to Renaissance Italy as we visit Raphael’s home inUrbino, trace his journey to Florence, where he meets Leonardo, and finally, and travel with theartist to Rome, where he is employed by in decorating the Vatican, and producing some of the mostsublime paintings in the world.
