En histoire de l’art, on ne se sent souvent familier qu’avec les maîtres les plus vénérés. Peintre et architecte de la Renaissance, Raphaël Santi (1483–1520) est l’un d’entre eux. Cet homme, que l’on appelle simplement Raphaël a été considéré comme l’un des plus grands artistes de la Renaissance. Pour certains, il dépasse même ses contemporains aussi fameux, les célèbres Michel-Ange et Léonard de Vinci.
De 1500 à 1508, Raphaël a œuvré dans toute l’Italie centrale, notamment Florence où il s’est fait connaître par ses portraits et ses magnifiques Madones, modèles de l’icône de la foi catholique. En 1508, il est appelé à Rome par le pape Jules II et y entreprend un ambitieux projet de fresques pour la Chambre de la Signature du Vatican. Créée durant cette période, L’École d’Athènes de Raphaël est considéré comme le paradigme de la Haute Renaissance en ce que l’œuvre associe philosophie classique et des perspectives parfaitement maîtrisées, des silhouettes expressives et une composition à l’équilibre majestueux.
Cette incontournable introduction analyse la façon dont Raphaël, en seulement vingt ans de création, a tracé sa voie vers une grandeur légendaire. Mettant l’accent sur sa production prolifique, l’ouvrage présente ce maître des figures et des formes qui s’est fait une place parmi la trinité des grands noms de la Renaissance, mais aussi auprès des artistes les plus estimés de tous les temps.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. In art history, we tend to be on first name terms only with the most revered of masters. The Renaissance painter and architect Raphael Santi (1483-1520) is one such star. The man we call simply Raphael has for centuries been hailed as a supreme Renaissance artist. For some, he even outstrips his equally famous, equally first-named, contemporaries, Leonardo and Michelangelo. From 1500 to 1508, Raphael worked throughout central Italy, particularly in Florence where he secured his reputation as a painter of portraits and beautifully rendered Madonnas, archetypical icons within the Catholic faith. In 1508 he was summoned to Rome by Pope Julius II and later embarked on an ambitious mural scheme for the Stanza della Segnatura in the Vatican. Within this room, Raphael's The School of Athens is considered a paradigm of the High Renaissance, merging Classical philosophy with perfected perspectival space, animated figures, and a composition of majestic balance. This essential introduction explores how in just two decades of work, Raphael painted his way to legendary greatness. With highlights from his prolific output, it presents the mastery of figures and forms that secured his place not only in the trinity of Renaissance luminaries but also among the most esteemed artists of all time. In just two decades of work, Raphael Santi painted his way to legendary greatness. This essential introduction to the artist we know simply as Raphael presents the mastery of figures, forms, and space that secured his place not only alongside Michelangelo and Leonardo in the trinity of Renaissance luminaries but also among the most esteemed artists of all time.
