WEBINAR RECORDING | “Italy’s Great Artists: Raphael”

Presented by Dr. Rocky Ruggiero

In 1507, a 24-year-old artist from Urbino named Raphael Sanzio exploded onto the art scene when Pope Julius II awarded him the contract to fresco the walls of his personal apartments. The result was some of the most beautiful paintings of the Renaissance – including his famous School of Athens – and an ensuing career that would firmly establish Raphael as one of the greatest artists of all time. Join Dr. Rocky for this free webinar where he will examine the extraordinary career of this Renaissance genius.

The webinar recording consists of a 45-minute lecture.
