Description: "In his 'Lives of the Artists' Vasari wrote: 'While we may term other works paintings those of Raphael are living things the flesh palpitates the breath comes and goes every organ lives life pulsates everywhere.' In this extensively illustrated book featuring some 300 illustrations the author takes a critical look at the life and work of Rafaello Sanzio or as he signed certain paintings Raphael Urbinas in homage to his native city of Urbino. Described as 'an artist touched by grace' he is considered along with Michelangelo and Leonardo to be one of the greatest painters of the Italian Renaissance. Raphael 1483-1520 whose birth and death were on a Good Friday belonged to a family of merchants; aside from his training in the studio of Perugino little is known about his earliest years. He arrived in Florence in 1504 where he studied the masters and produced magnificent paintings of the Madonna as well as remarkable portraits. In 1508 he went to Rome where he died a dozen years later at the height of his powers after creating monumental works at the Vatican. De Vecchi re-examines the scholarship surrounding each of the major periods of Raphael's short career dispelling the myths about him that have accumulated over the centuries. He reminds us that the most "profound" element of Raphael's art was his striving to express the dialectic between earthly and heavenly love an important concern of his contemporaries. The coverage of the text extends beyond the paintings to Raphael's significant work as an architect and designer of interiors.

An attractive copy. $250. First edition. This book reproduces the text of a speech given by military leader Don Rafael Vasco del Campo shortly upon his elevation by the King of Spain to the Presidency of Granada's Supreme Court of Justice. Don Vasco who distinguished himself in the service of the Spanish Crown in Mexico proclaims his humility before the office of his charge never before entrusted to a military man and invokes education as an antidote to envy hate revenge and thoughts of theft lies and deception. He also challenges the need for capital punishment and other legal injustices. During his short-lived presidency over Granada's highest court the region enjoyed peace and a flowering of the arts which ended with Napoleon's invasion of Spain and the subsequent popular uprisings against the Spanish Crown.
