Its strange that reproductions of Raphaels works arent displayed everywhere in institutions and shops. Why doesnt people try to surround themselves with beauty? Is it really so expensive to do so? ❯❯❯
The dispute is about something trivial. Such a remarkable artistic talent, if only it could be applied to timeless themes... Raphael only managed to achieve that level of profundity a mere two or three times (no more) during his career. Its a pity he didnt ❯❯❯

Raphael Santi (1483 – 1520) was a prominent painter and architect from Italy. His father was an associate of the Duke of Urbino. Possessing a talent for art and creative abilities, he painted pictures and wrote poetry. The childs acquaintance with the world of painting began in Giovannis workshop. His first significant work is still located in a museum.
His early works were created in the style of the Perugino school, as Raphael came to study with him in 1501.
After moving to Florence, the painter met Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Bartolomeo della Porta, and other recognized masters, studying their techniques, which helped him define his own style.
In 1508, Santi went to Rome and immediately became an official artist of the Papal Court. His most popular works include Madonna Alba (1510), Madonna with Fish (1512 – 1514), and Madonna in a Chair (c. 1513 – 1514).
Madonna Alba (1510)
Raphael depicted women with incredible beauty and tenderness, which is undeniable. This painting is very unusual: before us is the Virgin Mary with an infant and Christ sitting on her lap, but her limbs are extended, and she seems to be a throne upon which Jesus is seated. The third figure in the painting is John the Baptist. Because Raphael Santis work belongs to the High Renaissance era, there is no strongly expressed religious subtext in the image. The painter reflects natural nature. There are barely noticeable halos above the figures. Raphael expresses divinity through incredible beauty and flowing movements; the figures seem to be dancing. The painting is not static, but the entire canvas literally shines with universal humanism, which is reinforced by the ideal beauty of the figures. Mary holds John with her right hand and a page from the Bible with her left. Christ, sitting on her lap, is slightly turned, and the cross in his hands symbolizes his acceptance of his destiny, his sacrifice.
Madonna with Candlesticks (1513-1514)
In this painting, the viewer sees two angels and the Virgin Mary holding the infant Jesus. She gently holds her son, placing her hand on his chest, and looks down, unlike Madonna Alba (1510). But in addition to the differences between these two paintings, there are also similarities: barely noticeable halos are still present above the heads of the figures. The candlesticks on either side resemble structures from Ancient Rome and symbolize Christ and Mary as rulers of heaven. Warm colors and soft themes soften the features of those depicted.
Madonna in a Chair (1513-1514)
Another work by Santi, Madonna in a Chair, is located in the Palatine Gallery. Unlike the standard, the image of the Madonna is oval. Her image differs from the artists previous works, where he depicted her; a distinctive feature of this painting is the smile that is hard not to notice. It seems that the cry of the child made the girl stop working. The head of the Madonna is covered by a light shawl, which emphasizes her domesticity and obedience. But her clothing contradicts this. The bright color scheme of the Madonnas outfit gives her elegance and refinement, demonstrating her natural beauty. Raphael was inspired by the appearance of his beloved, Franorina, and reflected it in almost all his paintings, and Madonna in a Chair is no exception. He sought to depict female attractiveness, weakness, sensitivity, and all those qualities that only a girl can possess. Raphael is considered a master of depicting Madonnas. When the artist began painting images of women in Rome, they were already majestic and powerful.
The website owners decided that everything was already done and no revisions were needed. They are mistaken, but not in the main points, rather in the details. These details are revealed through relevant albums, literature, and other materials. ❯❯❯
Regarding the titles of artworks, theres a clash between correct and incorrect interpretations, and sometimes the final choice of title is made based on a us vs. them mentality, which isnt beneficial for the website. ❯❯❯
In my opinion, this is not a work by Raphael. He wouldnt have distorted the color and form in that way. Its clearly a stylized imitation of his style. Theres no blending here between the profound expressive language of a genius and this piece. Please dont ❯❯❯

Compared to the portrait by Agnolo Doni, there is a much greater rigidity in the forms, both in the head and the hands. Its as if these portraits were painted by completely different people, despite having the same creation date. Thats the impression I get ❯❯❯
