Book excerpt: More versatile and less idiosyncratic than Michelangelo, more prolific and accessible than his mentor Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, though he died at only thirty-seven, is considered the single most influential artist of the Renaissance. Here, art historian Paul Joannides explores the different social and regional contexts of Raphaels work and discusses all aspects of his artistic output. He traces Raphaels career from his origins in Urbino, through his altarpieces made in Umbria in the shadow of Perugino, to the first flowering of his genius in Florence where he painted a series of iconic Madonnas that are among the most beloved images in Western art. Raphaels employment by the dynamic and demanding Pope Julius II gave him opportunities without parallel and encouraged the full expansion of his genius. As a sophisticate entrepreneur, he dominated Romes artistic life and extended the range of his activities to that of architect, designer, pioneer archaeologist and theoretician. The foundation of Raphaels versatility and range was his supreme clarity of mind as a draughtsman. Knowledge of his drawings, on which Joannides is a leading expert, is central to understanding of his achievement, and they are thoroughly explored here.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raphael (1483-1520), the Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance, was a genius in and ahead of his time. Together with Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, he formed the classical trinity of this era and elaborated a rich style of harmony and geometry. As one of the great masters of the Renaissance and artist to European royalty and the Papal court in Rome, his works comprise various themes of theology and philosophy, including but not limited to famous illustrations of the Madonna. His surroundings and experience gave rise to his propensity to combine the ideals of humanism with those of religion, and firmly established in him a conviction that art is a necessary medium to reveal the beauty of nature.

Download or read book Villa Madama written by Guy Dewez and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Villa Madama, one of Raphael's most important architectural projects, was unfinished at the time of the artist's death in 1520, and though some further work on the building, commissioned by the Medici as a guest-house for important visitors to Rome, was done by his collaborator Giulio Romano, it was never completed. Nonetheless the Villa, itself intended to emulate the villas of classical Antiquity, has always played a key role in architectural history, serving as a model and an inspiration down to the present post-Modern age. Villa Madama is a critical study of the design history of the building, taking in contemporary literary and visual sources, including an important descriptive letter from Raphael to his patron. Through a rigorous analysis of the surviving designs, and from reconstruction plans and elevations based on measurement of the surviving structure, Guy Dewez presents a comprehensive account of the villa Raphael might have built, had circumstances been different. In so doing Guy Dewez not only restores to an unfinished masterpiece its true form, but he also extends the range of architectural discourse, through a multi-layered, interwoven approach to text, annotation and illustration. This book extends the formal canon of the measured drawing into a new field: its use as a creative tool in analyzing architectural meaning. A traditional instrument of record becomes a means of exploring the architect's intentions and aims. Raphael's Villa Madama remains one of the most important buildings of the Italian Renaissance, admired and studied over the years by architects and art historians. Villa Madama, the most recent study, presents the building in a new aspect, and in so doing provides a model for the study of historic buildings, leading to a fresh appreciation of the complexities of the architectural process, and of Raphael's status as an architect.

Book excerpt: First published ten years ago, award-winning historian Ray Raphael’s Founding Myths has since established itself as a landmark of historical myth-busting. With the author’s trademark wit and flair, Founding Myths exposes the errors and inventions in America’s most cherished tales, from Paul Revere’s famous ride to Patrick Henry’s “Liberty or Death” speech. For the seventy thousand readers who have been captivated by Raphael’s eye-opening accounts, history has never been the same. In this revised tenth-anniversary edition, Raphael revisits the original myths and explores their further evolution over the past decade, uncovering new stories and peeling back additional layers of misinformation. This new edition also examines the highly politicized debates over America’s past, as well as how school textbooks and popular histories often reinforce rather than correct historical mistakes. A book that “explores the truth behind the stories of the making of our nation” (National Public Radio), this revised edition of Founding Myths will be a welcome resource for anyone seeking to separate historical fact from fiction.

Book excerpt: The selection of drawings demonstrates how Raphael created a specific mode of visual invention and persuasive communication through drawing. He used drawing both as conceptual art (including brainstorming sheets) and as a practice based on attentive observation (such as drawing from the posed model). Yet Raphael's drawings also reveal how the process of drawing in itself, with its gestural rhythms and spontaneity, can be a form of thought, generating new ideas. The Oxford exhibition will present drawings that span Raphael's entire career, encompassing many of his major projects and exploring his visual language from inventive ideas to full compositions. The extraordinary range of drawings by Raphael in the Ashmolean and the Albertina, enhanced by appropriate loans, will enable this exhibition to cast new light on this familiar artist, transforming our understanding of Raphael's art.

He wrote profusely on the great masters of the Renaissance and pioneered the modern study of Italian art history.

Book excerpt: La Muta, "the mute woman." Amidst a country rocked by scandal and corruption, inhabitants of the idyllic city of Urbino, Italy, birthplace of Raphael, are more concerned with a sudden outbreak of miracles than with politics. But what unspeakable secret lies hidden in Raphael's enigmatic painting? Its restoration will drive a living mute to a shocking act of violence and spark an investigation into a nearly forgotten war crime and a series of events that will shatter the silence gripping this community forever. Both a mesmerizing thriller and a passionate exploration of the power of truth to effect reconciliation and restore faith, Waking Raphael spins a tantalizing web of silence and lies to recreate an Italy where the romantic and the violent, the comic and the tragic, are spellbindingly interwoven.

Download or read book Architectural Invention in Renaissance Rome written by Yvonne Elet and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Villa Madama, Raphael's late masterwork of architecture, landscape, and decoration for the Medici popes, is a paradigm of the Renaissance villa. The creation of this important, unfinished complex provides a remarkable case study for the nature of architectural invention. Drawing on little known poetry describing the villa while it was on the drawing board, as well as ground plans, letters, and antiquities once installed there, Yvonne Elet reveals the design process to have been a dynamic, collaborative effort involving humanists as well as architects. She explores design as a self-reflexive process, and the dialectic of text and architectural form, illuminating the relation of word and image in Renaissance architectural practice. Her revisionist account of architectural design as a process engaging different systems of knowledge, visual and verbal, has important implications for the relation of architecture and language, meaning in architecture, and the translation of idea into form.
