Description: 1677 FAMED 1ed Raphael ART Vatican Frescoes Pope Sixtus Renaissance Woodcuts Raphael was one of the most famous and important Italian painters of the Renaissance. Most of his work is still regularly appreciated and studied in museums all over the world. Though, perhaps the most famous collection of Raphael paintings is in the Vatican museum, where spaces now known as the Raphael Rooms feature exquisite full-wall frescoes of his artwork. Italian engraver Pietro Saint Bartoli published a series of engravings of Raphael’s frescoes in the 17th-century. The plates themselves feature the text ‘Vaticani Palatii Xystis’, referring to the Vatican palace under Pope Sixtus IV who constructed portions of the Vatican for art such as the Sistine Chapel and the Vatican Library. Bartoli’s collection of Raphael engravings was dedicated to Cardinal Carlo Massimo following his death in 1677 – a collection of 43 stunning oblong folio illustrations!
