Raphael 1483-1520: The Invention of the High Renaissance

Great book for beginners, have useful information and amazing quality paintings without overwhelming you.

I love that book of Raphal's art as champion in Europe , everyone should buy this .Awsome!!!!!!!!!!I love to order many Vatican books from Amazon is my favorite. Enough Rhetoric😀I am Vaticanolgist.Happy Thanksgiving to Amazon groupRobert

Great series of artist books offering a general overview of each artist and their work.

It certainly took a long time getting here & a specific work by Raphael I hoped would be in the book in fact isn't. Though there are many similar types of works in this book. Is the answer to the above question in fact got something to do with the properties of water in the various forms & states water can be in. Also the paintings look highly manipulated in terms of their pigment concentrations. It is a book for future reference & the reason I don't love it is I find it hard to love books. This in now way prevents me from liking a book or books. With some time spent reading the written parts of the book I am sure I will be furthered inspired to attempt painting of human figures though I doubt with such intimacy as done by Raphael.

This book is really nice and would make a great gift for any art lover. This book gives information here and there about Raphael. It is packed full of much of his artwork too. Wonderful book all around.

Wonderful image quality

Great book. All of the art books from Taschen are quality products. I buy them all.

Excellent in that it gave a biography plus his works.

The media could not be loaded. Un magnifique ouvrage sur la vie et les œuvres du célèbre peintre Raphaël. Il y a de belles illustrations accompagnées d'un commentaire. A lire et à regarder sans modération 💖. Sylvy

O livro não atendeu as expectativas.

This was purchased as a gift for someone who loves Renaissance art. Raphael was one of the celebrated artists of that period. The book is well produced and printed and gives an insight into the life and art of the celebrated painter Raphael.

bellissime illustrazione, buon testo, ideale per chi vuole avere una visione sintetica del genio di Raffaello, della sua vita, delle sue opere. lo consiglierei a tutti
