"Raphael, the genius of the High Renaissance, is seen here for the first time in the full breadth of his artistic activity. Though he died during his 37th year, Raphael achieved universal fame for his paintings, drawings, and architectural projects. These activities of the artist are treated by eight of Italy's leading scholars, together with the artist's interests in Ancient Rome, his poetry, and a full exposition of his life. Accompanying the text are hundreds of black-and-white illustrations and scores of illustrations in color, making this study the most complete one on Raphael in the English language." A handsomely produced volume which will make a welcome addition to anyone's art book library. ISBN. New York: Reynal and Company in association with William Morrow and Company. 1969.
