Born in 1483 in Urbino, Italy, Raphael’s talent emerged early, leading to commissions that defined his career, including The School of Athens and the frescoes of the Vatican Stanze. This biography explores his collaborations, his rivalry with contemporaries like Michelangelo, and his contributions to art and architecture. Raphael’s work exemplified beauty, balance, and grace, earning him recognition as a master artist. Though his life was cut short at 37, his legacy endures as a symbol of Renaissance perfection and artistic brilliance.
