CCR Talks: Raffaello - February 13, 2020

Raffaello Sanzio, known simply as Raffaello to his admirers, seemed poised to become the greatest artist of all time when he was cut down by a sudden but fatal illness in April 1520.  In commemoration of the 500th anniversary of his death the Scuderie del Quirinale in Rome is planning an exhibition which will open in March 2020. This lecture for the CCR is intended to give an overview of the artist’s momentous career to enhance viewing and appreciation of the upcoming exhibition.
