This release recognizes the 500th anniversary of the death of Raphael.
Raphael was a painter and architect. He had a precocious talent and acknowledged embodying the supreme ideal of serenity and beauty of the Renaissance.
Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino (1483–1520), better known as Raphael in English, was an Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance. His work is admired for its clarity of form, ease of composition, and visual achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur. Together with Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, he forms the traditional trinity of great masters of that period.
