The beautiful (and gigantic)Transfigurationis Raphael’s last known painting. It was commissioned by Cardinal Guilio de Medici, who later became Pope Clement VII.

The curves of the panel are repeated in the arrangeme...

Leo Xis one of Raphael’s most important Renaissance portraits. After a clumsy 19th century restoration, experts confirmed “without a doubt” that the two cardinals were, in fact, painted by Raphael. The Pitti Palace received the painting in a “trade” with the Uffizi Gallery in exchange for the acclaimed Raphael double portrait ofAgonoli Doni and Mad...
The Uffizi contains one of Raphael’s loveliest paintings, the serene Madonna of the Goldfinch. The sentimental painting shows Mary with a young Christ and John the Baptist. John holds a goldfinch, a potent symbol of the passion of Christ, of Christ’s suffering. It was influenced by Leonardo’s painting of the same subject from 1500 in the Louvre. Yo...
