Book Reviews of Raphael
Book Review: Lavishly illustrated book about the life and work of one of the most influential of all artists
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a delightful book of "Raphael's" art, sensuality and sensuousness.
One of the artists greatest achievements was to create and perfect artistic formulae of astonishing durability. The book discusses these, both because they are, in themselves, a reflection of his genius and because, unexplained, they can be an impediment to our recognition of his originality. Another feature of the book is the extensive consideration of Raphael's little known architectural achievements.
He was, I feel, the greatest of all Renaissance artists.....
