Raffaello Sanzi or Santi is better known to the world as Raphael, master of the High Period of Italian Renaissance Architecture.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

Raphael is best known for his paintings of Madonnas and for his large paintings in the Vatican<\/st1:country-region> in Rome<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>.  <\/span>Critics have lauded Raphael for his clarity of form, ease of composition and for visually presenting the Neoplatonic ideal of the majesty of humanity.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

Raphael was the son of Giovanni Santi and Magia di Battista Ciarla.  <\/span>His mother died in 1491.  <\/span>Vasari, the chronicler of the lives of the great artists, described Raphael’s father as “a painter of no great merit.”  <\/span>He was, no matter the criticism, a man of worldly knowledge and experience.  <\/span>He appeared to know the advanced artistic ideas of the day at the court at Urbino.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

Giovanni Santi introduced the young Raphael to painting.  <\/span>Before Santi died in 1491, he made sure that the 11 year old Raphael was exposed to a basic understanding of humanistic philosophy from the court at Urbino.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

The court at Urbino had become a center for Renaissance culture during the rule of Duke Federico da Montefeltro.  <\/span>The Duke encouraged the talents of artists like Bramante, della Francesca and Leon Alberti.  <\/span>The court at Urbino, therefore, was the place where the young Raphael was exposed to the arts and ideas of the time.  <\/span>At 17, Raphael already was displaying an extraordinary talent.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
