Exploring the Legacy of Raphael: High Renaissance Master

Raphael, a master of the Italian High Renaissance, worked alongside Leonardo and Michelangelo. Despite his early death at 37, he produced a vast array of works, aided by a large studio. His paintings have traveled extensively, with some even surviving shipwrecks. Raphael's early life in Urbino and training under Pietro Perugino shaped his style. His time in Florence and Rome, especially his work in the Vatican, solidified his reputation. His portraits, like that of Pope Julius II, are renowned. Raphael's influence persists, though some works remain missing, like his 'Portrait of a Young Man'.
