RAPHAEL SANZIO

By: Abby Cline

EARLY LIFE

 Raphael Sanzio was born on April 6, 1432 in Urbino, Italy.

 Raphael's father was Giovanni Santi, a court painter who gave him most of his experience as an artist.

 In 1491, his mother Magia de Batista Ciarla died when Raphael was only eight years old. His father remarried but later died in 1494. He was orphaned at the age of 11.  Raphael’s uncle, Bartolomeo became his legal guardian. Although he became his legal guardian he began living with his stepmother.

EARLY LIFE

 Urbino, Italy was a town that had high regards for the arts.

 After his fathers death he served as an apprentice for many different master painters  One of the most significant masters Raphael served for was Perugia. Under his instruction he learned to clear the organization of the subject of matter, overall composition, and editing skills.

 He was trained as a master at the age of eighteen.

 His first major work was the Baronci altarpiece for the Saint Nicholas Church in Citta di Castello.

MAJOR WORKS

Baronci Altarpiece- This altarpiece was created for Andrea Barconi’s chapel the church of Saint Nicholas of Tolentino in Citta di Castello. It was Raphael's first documented work. It was commissioned in 1500 and finished in 1501. This piece was severely damaged in an earthquake in 1789 fragments of this piece are located in different areas. This work relates to the renaissance because it’s a painting where the figure looks idealized, the bodies are clothed, and the face expresses what the person is thinking. In this picture the person depicted seems doleful or disappointed.

MAJOR WORKS

Madonna on the Chair- This piece was painted with oil on wood by Raphael in 1514. Raphael painted this piece in Rome and it later became apart of the Medici family’s art collection. He painted this piece shortly after working on the Vatican “Stanza d'Eliodoro.” This relates to Renaissance themes because forms of art were usually paintings that depicted religious scene, bodies that look idealized, bodies that are clothed. All of these characteristics fit this piece of art.

LIFESTYLE AND RELATIONSHIPS

 Lived in a large Roman Palace.

 Engaged to Maria Bibbiena the niece of a cardinal (Arranged).

 Never was able to become engaged due to the death or Maria.

 After Maria’s Death had a long-lasting relationship with Margherita Luti.

DEATH
