    eLexikon Bewährtes Wissen in aktueller Form Raffael Santi Internet: https://peter-hug.ch/lexikon/Raffael+Santi MainSeite 63.593 Raffael Santi 3'315 Wörter, 22'357 Zeichen Raffael Santi, auch Rafael, Raphael (ital. Raffaello), irrtümlich Sanzio,ital. Maler, geb. 1483 zu Urbino. Der Geburtstag selbst ist streitig: je nachdem man die vom Kardinal Bembo verfaßte Grabschrift R.s deutet, welche besagt, er sei «an dem Tage, an dem er geboren war, gestorben» («quo die natus est eo esse desiit VIII Id. April MDXX», d. i. 6. April 1520, damals Karfreitag), setzt man den Geburtstag auf den 6. April oder auf den Karfreitag, d. i. 28. März 1483, an. Seine erste künstlerische Unterweisung dankte er dem Vater Giovanni Santi (s. d.), den er jedoch bereits im 12. Jahre verlor, sodann einem unbekannten Meister in Urbino, vielleicht dem Timoteo Viti, mit dem er auch später enge Beziehungen unterhielt. Erst 1499 verließ er die Vaterstadt und trat in die Werkstätte des damals hochberühmten Malers Perugino (s. d.) in Perugia. Das älteste Datum, welches man auf seinen Bildern antrifft, ist das Jahr 1504 (auf dem «Sposalizio», s. unten); doch hat er gewiß schon früher selbständig für Kirchen in Perugia und in Città di Castello gearbeitet. 1504 siedelte Raffael Santi nach Florenz über, wo er die nächsten Jahre mit einigen Unterbrechungen, die ihn nach Perugia und Urbino zurückführten, verweilte. In Florenz war der Einfluß Leonardos und Fra Bartolommeos auf seine künstlerische Vervollkommnung am mächtigsten; von jenem lernte er die korrekte Zeichnung, von diesem den symmetrischen und dabei doch bewegten Aufbau der Figuren. Als abschließendes künstlerisches Resultat seines Aufenthalts in Florenz ist die 1507 für San Fancesco in Perugia gemalte Grablegung zu betrachten (jetzt in der Galerie Borghese zu Rom).

  • RAFFAELLO SANZIO Una Mostra Impossibile
    RAFFAELLO SANZIO Una Mostra Impossibile «... non fu superato in nulla, e sembra radunare in sé tutte le buone qualità degli antichi». Così si esprime, a proposito di Raffaello Sanzio, G.P. Bellori – tra i più convinti ammiratori dell’artista nel ’600 –, un giudizio indicativo dell’incontrastata preminenza ormai riconosciuta al classicismo raffaellesco. Nato a Urbino (1483) da Giovanni Santi, Raffaello entra nella bottega di Pietro Perugino in anni imprecisati. L’intera produzione d’esordio è all’insegna di quell’incontro: basti osservare i frammenti della Pala di San Nicola da Tolentino (Città di Castello, 1500) o dell’Incoronazione di Maria (Città del Vaticano, Pinacoteca Vaticana, 1503). Due cartoni accreditano, ad avvio del ’500, il coinvolgimento nella decorazione della Libreria Piccolomini (Duomo di Siena). Lo Sposalizio della Vergine (Milano, Pinacoteca di Brera, 1504), per San Francesco a Città di Castello (Milano, Pinacoteca di Brera), segna un decisivo passo di avanzamento verso la definizione dello stile maturo del Sanzio. Il soggiorno a Firenze (1504-08) innesca un’accelerazione a tale processo, favorita dalla conoscenza dei tra- guardi di Leonardo e Michelangelo: lo attestano la serie di Madonne con il Bambino, i ritratti e le pale d’altare. Rimonta al 1508 il trasferimento a Roma, dove Raffaello è ingaggiato da Giulio II per adornarne l’appartamento nei Palazzi Vaticani. Nella prima Stanza (Segnatura) l’urbinate opera in autonomia, mentre nella seconda (Eliodoro) e, ancor più, nella terza (Incendio di Borgo) è affiancato da collaboratori, assoluti responsabili dell’ultima (Costantino). Il linguaggio raffaellesco, inglobando ora sollecitazioni da Michelangelo e dal mondo veneto, assume accenti rilevantissimi, grazie anche allo studio dell’arte antica.

  • Renaissance History Through His Humanist Accomplishments
    3-79 A / /vO.7Y HUMANISM AND THE ARTIST RAPHAEL: A VIEW OF RENAISSANCE HISTORY THROUGH HIS HUMANIST ACCOMPLISHMENTS THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Science By Douglas W. Miller, B.A., M.S. Denton, Texas August, 1991 Miller, Douglas W., Humanism and the Artist Raphael: A View of Renaissance History Through His Humanist Accomplishments. Master of Science (History), August, 1991, 217 pp., 56 illustrations, bibliography, 43 titles. This thesis advances the name of Raphael Santi, the High Renaissance artist, to be included among the famous and highly esteemed Humanists of the Renaissance period. While the artistic creativity of the Renaissance is widely recognized, the creators have traditionally been viewed as mere craftsmen. In the case of Raphael Santi, his skills as a painter have proven to be a timeless medium for the immortalizing of the elevated thinking and turbulent challenges of the time period. His interests outside of painting, including archaeology and architecture, also offer strong testimony of his Humanist background and pursuits. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I would like to gratefully acknowledge the kind and loving support (and patience) that I have received from my wife and my entire family. Thank you for everything, and I dedicate this thesis to all of you, but especially to the person that most embodies all those humanist qualities this thesis attempts to celebrate and honor. That person is my father. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS.. ... .. v INTRODUCTION................. CHAPTER I. HUMANISM: THE ESSENCE OF THE RENAISSANCE.

  • Vasari: a Translation from Die Kunstliteratur (1924)
    Julius von Schlosser on Vasari: a translation from Die Kunstliteratur (1924) Karl Johns - Julius Schlosser and the location of Vasari When Thomas Mann was composing Doktor Faustus and decided to have the devil make an appearance at the precise center of the manuscript, he was applying his literary irony to a phenomenon in which he had himself participated, which affected his life directly, and threatened those of his wife and children.1 When Julius Schlosser made Giorgio Vasari the isolated subject of Book Five of his Kunstliteratur, he was also describing a certain development in idiosyncratic literary terms and placing a figure at the center who could not ultimately be applauded according to the terms of his ‘Kunstliteratur’. Unlike the world of Adrian Leverkühn, Schlosser, who was felicitously described in a 1939 obituary as ‘an anachronism in the very best sense of the term’, had developed his concept of the literature of art ‘Kunstliteratur’ independently of the trends of the time. Indeed, his most ambitious essays had included a systematic refutation of the flawed premises of various types of scholarly writings about earlier art then flourishing. Formalism and undue abstraction were then exciting popular interest and drawing unusual numbers of auditors into academic lecture halls. The burgeoning literature of dissertations was being roundly criticized. In this period of emotional nationalism and rising fascism, his development of the concept of ‘Kunstliteratur’ served to stress the importance of objectivity in historical scholarship independently of anything one might feel. To create such a footing it would be necessary in his ‘classic’ book to clarify the entire emergence of the academic discipline of the history of art.

    RAPHAEL SANTI LONDON PRINTED BY SPOTTISWOODE AND CO. NEW-STEEET SQUARE RAPHAEL SANTI His Life and His Works BY ALFRED BARON VON WOLZOGEN TRANSLATED BY F. E. BUNNETT TRANSLATOR OF GRIMM'S ' LIFE OF MICHAEL ANGELO' AND GERVINUS'S 'SHAKESPEARE COMMENTARIES LONDON SMITH, ELDER, & CO., 65 CORNHILL 1866 759.5 R12wEb TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE. HAVING translated Grimm's 'Life of Michael Angelo,' I was desirous of finding some memoir of his great contemporary Eaphael, which might complete the picture we already possess of a period so rich in the history of Art. It was not easy to meet with a work which was not too diffuse in its art-criticisms for the ordinary reader, and until Wolzogen's 'Life of Eaphael' appeared, there was no concise biography of the great painter which seemed to me to supply the information required. It is for this reason that I have translated the work; and I trust it will not be without interest to those who have hitherto known Eaphael in his art alone. F. E. BUNNETT. PREFACE. EAPHAEL-LITERATURE already fills a library of its own. Extensive works, such as Passavant's ' Eafael von Urbino und sein Vater Giovanni Santi' (three volumes, with maps, Leipsic, 1839-58), are among its treasures; but there is ever lacking a concise summary of all the more important investigations and decisions hitherto arrived at with regard to the great master's life and works. The best and most spirited of these are for the most part, moreover, in various papers and pamphlets, in which Eaphael is not the sole subject.

  • Raphael Born April 6, 1483, Urbino, Duchy of Urbino [Italy] Died April 6
    Raphael Born April 6, 1483, Urbino, Duchy of Urbino [Italy] Died April 6, 1520, Rome, Papal States [Italy] The Grand-Duke's Madonna, oil painting by Raphael, 1505; in the Pitti … Scala/Art Resource, New York Italian in full Raffaello Sanzio master painter and architect of the Italian High Renaissance. Raphael is best known for his Madonnas (see photograph) and for his large figure compositions in the Vatican in Rome. His work is admired for its clarity of form and ease of composition and for its visual achievement of the Neoplatonic ideal of human grandeur. Early years at Urbino. Raphael was the son of Giovanni Santi and Magia di Battista Ciarla; his mother died in 1491. His father was, according to the 16th-century artist and biographer Giorgio Vasari, a painter “of no great merit.” He was, however, a man of culture who was in constant contact with the advanced artistic ideas current at the court of Urbino. He gave his son his first instruction in painting, and, before his death in 1494, when Raphael was 11, he had introduced the boy to humanistic philosophy at the court. Urbino had become a centre of culture during the rule of Duke Federico da Montefeltro, who encouraged the arts and attracted the visits of men of outstanding talent, including Donato Bramante, Piero della Francesca, and Leon Battista Alberti, to his court. Although Raphael would be influenced by major artists in Florence and Rome, Urbino constituted the basis for all his subsequent learning. Furthermore, the cultural vitality of the city probably stimulated the exceptional precociousness of the young artist, who, even at the beginning of the 16th century, when he was scarcely 17 years old, already displayed an extraordinary talent.

  • RAFFAELLO SANZIO Di Carla Amirante
    RAFFAELLO SANZIO di Carla Amirante 2020 è l’anno in cui ricorre il quinto centenario della morte di Raffaello Sanzio pittore e architetto tra i più grandi artisti di tutti i tempi, considerato come un esempio perfetto della pittura del Rinascimento italiano. Con i suoi dipinti caratterizzati da un giusto equilibrio compositivo e da una raffinata ricerca formale il Sanzio ha saputo creare opere così serene e concluse, prive dell'ambiguità leonardesca e del dramma michelangiolesco, tali da apparire inafferrabili e divine. Nella sua attività Raffaello fu aiutato da un bell’aspetto, una personalità amabile, educata e raffinata, ma essendo anche molto ambizioso seppe unire a queste sue doti naturali anche un talento straordinario e una capacità organizzativa, di tipo imprenditoriale, quasi moderna tale che in pochi anni di carriera riuscì ad ottenere grandissima fama e notevole ricchezza. Neppure Leonardo e Michelangelo erano riusciti ad ottenere altrettanto. Di eccezionale apertura mentale, Raffaello continuò anche in età matura a migliorare la sua formazione artistica seguendo più strade, interessandosi alla cultura del suo tempo e studiando altri artisti. Egli prese contatto con i protagonisti del pensiero neoplatonico e strinse amicizia con letterati e intellettuali per arricchire al massimo la sua personalità, utilizzando e rielaborando le loro idee e saperi per dare così altra linfa alla sua già feconda creatività. Raffaello riuscì a fondere così la più alta tradizione quattrocentesca con gli elementi innovativi del ‘500 in una personale visione unitaria e, avendo inoltre grande padronanza dei mezzi espressivi, portò nelle sue opere un linguaggio chiaro, preciso e dallo stile inconfondibile. Per i pittori venuti dopo di lui Raffaello divenne quindi il modello assoluto a cui fare riferimento e fu considerato il creatore della pittura “all’antica”, influenzando profondamente sia l’arte del suo tempo che quella venuta dopo di lui, la corrente artistica che va sotto il nome di Manierismo.
