EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Head of An Apostle (Study for Transfiguration)" by renowned Italian artist Raphael. Created between 1519 and 1520, this masterpiece is now housed in the prestigious collection of the Albertina museum in Vienna. Raphael, also known as Raffaello Sanzio or Raffael da Urbino, was a prominent figure during the Renaissance period. His exceptional talent shines through in this detailed portrait executed with black chalk on paper. The apostle's face exudes a sense of serenity and wisdom, capturing the essence of religious devotion. As one of Raphael's preparatory studies for his larger work called "Transfiguration" this piece offers a glimpse into his creative process. It reveals his meticulous attention to detail and mastery of portraiture. The study reflects Roman School influences prevalent during that time. The subject matter draws inspiration from biblical narratives, emphasizing spirituality and faith. This print serves as a testament to Raphael's ability to bring characters from ancient texts to life through art. With its fine lines and delicate shading, this graphic artwork exemplifies the beauty found within Renaissance aesthetics.
