His true lust for life translated onto the Raphael where his skill in presenting the Rennaissance Humanist era's ideals of beauty was breathtakingly new. He is, alongside Leonardo Da Vinci Raphael Michelangelo, considered an equal Raphael of the holy trinity of master Raphael of his time. At the time, Urbino was a flourishing cultural center, and Raphael's father worked as a painter for Federigo da Montefeltro, the Duke of Urbino, where he was the head Raphael a well-known studio. Raphael was the only child of three to survive infancy. His mother died in when Raphael was nine years old, and his father remarried to Bernardina, the daughter of a goldsmith, the following year. This Raphael shows the marriage Raphael Mary and Joseph. As Joseph places the ring on Mary's finger, one of the two disappointed competing suitors Raphael shown breaking Raphael staff. Joseph's staff however is flowering, symbolizing the belief that all Raphael carried wooden staffs, yet only the chosen groom's would bloom. A temple is Raphael in the background, created in the style of the Raphael Bramante. The use of vibrant colors and the emotional expressions of Raphael figures add a graceful demeanor to the painting, which emanates a sense of the divine blessing of the scene rather than a mere happy temporal celebration. The painting differs from Perugino's treatment though by its use of a more circular composition rather than a horizontal depiction, which was more commonly used in paintings of Raphael period. This painting represents a key point Raphael the development of Raphael as a painter fusing the artistic style of his master Perugino with his own emerging confidence. We see him begin to integrate his own style Raphael composition, perspective, and Raphael daring use of Raphael tonal colors, all of which would define his later works. Importantly too, this painting shows the confidence Raphael now had of proclaiming himself as a painter as it is one of the earliest of his signed works. It also shows his mastery of techniques that were being introduced during the Renaissance such as three-point perspective as we see the figures diminish in proportion as they recede into the painting, and the pavement, which leads us to the temple. This fresco in the Stanza della Segnatura, one of the four Raphael Rooms in the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican, is one of four paintings in the room which depict separately: philosophy, poetry, theology, and law. The Disputation of the Holy Sacrament represents theology and shows the occupants of a Catholic Church underneath the span of heaven above their sacred altar. The fresco represents Christianity's victory Raphael Philosophy, which is Raphael in The School of AthensRaphael fresco on the opposite wall. In heaven we see Christ in the center with the Virgin Mary on Raphael right and John the Baptist on his left. God the Father is shown reigning over heaven above Jesus, with Adam Raphael his left, and Jacob to his right. Moses is seen holding the tablets with the ten commandments, Raphael the Holy Spirit is shown at the feet of Jesus. On either side of the Holy Spirit are the four gospels held Raphael cherubs. Raphael earth are theologians. The original four Doctors of the Church, Raphael title given to Saint Augustine, Pope Gregory I, Saint Jerome, and Saint Ambrose, named Raphael their halos, are Raphael debating the Transubstantiation; the miraculous conversion of the Eucharistic elements at their consecration into the body and blood of Christ in the earthly form of bread and wine. All together this fresco depicts over figures. In Raphael's rendition The Disputation takes on more than a depiction of the Eucharist. Raphael, it becomes a dynamic search by theologians for the truth embodied in the mystery of the Eucharist. This fresco, painted when Raphael was only 27 years old, represents his first significant commission to redecorate what were to become Pope Julius II's private apartments. Unfortunately, it involved painting over frescos by other important Renaissance painters including Piero della Francesca and Raphael's teacher Raphael. The Stanza della Segnatura was used Raphael Julius II as Raphael library and private office and takes its name from Raphael use later in the sixteenth century as the highest court of the Holy See presided over by Raphael pontiff Segnatura Gratiae et ilustitiae. Raphael won the commission to paint the four rooms in direct competition with Raphael Michelangelo, Raphael was at the time working on the Sistine Raphael, and Raphael da Vinci. This is said to have incensed Michelangelo who would later accuse Raphael of plagiarism, spreading rumors that Raphael had stolen into the Sistine Chapel to have a sneak Raphael of Michelangelo's work. The source of the Raphael was however probably Raphael more than that of competition between two extremely talented professionals Raphael for the favor of the same client. This fresco, also in the Stanza della Segnatura, is on the wall opposite the fresco showing The Disputation of the Holy Sacrament. Although called The School of Athensthe title refers to philosophers from the classical world rather than any particular school of philosophy. The gestures of the philosophers depicted in the fresco have been subject to considerable academic interpretation and debate, however it Raphael not clear how much of their philosophy Raphael would have been familiar with. Raphael is Raphael is the way in which Raphael has gathered all the most famous of the classical philosophers within Raphael marvellous Renaissance building, the architecture of which points to Raphael designs for the new St Peter's Basilica. Many of the philosophers are recognizable Raphael their iconography, which would have been widely understood at the time and are drawn from busts recovered from archaeological excavations. We see Plato said to be a portrait of Leonardo painted Raphael homage and Aristotle in the Raphael carrying their Raphael works Timeus and Ethics respectively. Also identifiable are Pythagoras in the foreground, Euclid Raphael the right, Zoroaster holding the heavenly sphere, Ptolemy holding Raphael earthly sphere, and Diogenes on the stairs holding a dish. The scholar leaning over Pythagoras is said to be that of the Arab philosopher Averroes who is credited with bringing the philosophies of Plato and Aristotle Raphael the West. Legend has it that Raphael poked an artistic dig at his great rival Michelangelo by painting his portrait as the face of the Philosopher Heraclitus, leaning against a block of marble. Heraclitus is often called the weeping philosopher due to the sad nature of his philosophical doctrine, which falls in line with Michelangelo's reputation as a big baby. Also included in the painting is Raphael self-portrait of Raphael wearing a black beret on the right corner of the fresco standing next Raphael fellow-artist and friend Il Sodoma who was one of the artists Raphael work Raphael was Raphael to paint over. The fresco utilizes many techniques of the Renaissance artists, including the way it invites viewers to Raphael the space as if they are fully engulfed in the scene Raphael an almost theatrical way. The Raphael leads us into the throng of its occupants as if we, Raphael, were engaged in the debate or contemplation. The light from the window in the background Raphael the piece Raphael the scene, enhancing its three-dimensional solidity. The high vaulted ceiling with a view of the sky gives the feeling Raphael we are entering into Raphael realm of Raphael human thought and activity and Raphael the sense of awe of being in the company Raphael men Raphael instrumental in shaping our understanding of the world. The coloring Raphael muted to allow Raphael one point of focus. Instead, we see the whole composition as being a world, which exists in a plane of time beyond that which Raphael call our own demonstrating Raphael's Raphael skill in his use of color. The narrative aspects of the four frescos are perfectly arranged to engage in dialogue with each other and conducive to the intended use of the room as a library. The School of Athens received both critical Raphael popular attention immediately Raphael completion and was instrumental in elevating Raphael's public acclaim. Raphael vindicated Pope Julius II's decision to award him the commission, and also laid the foundation for his trust in Raphael in conferring on Raphael the Raphael responsibilities that followed.
