Raphael
Raphael, The
Madonna in the
Meadow, 15051506
“How can we treat, in small compass, of him
whose fame has filled the universe? On the
history of Italian art, he stands alone, like
Shakespeare in the history of our literature.”
-----Mrs. Jameson, Memoirs of the Early Italian
Painters, 1859
“Raphael’s greatest paintings seem so effortless that one does not
usually connect them with the ideas of hard and relentless work.
To many, he is simply the painter of the sweet Madonnas which
have become so well known as hardly to be appreciated as
paintings anymore…We see cheap reproductions of these works
in humble rooms, and we are apt to conclude that paintings with
such general appeal must surely be a little ‘obvious’. In fact, their
apparent simplicity is the fruit of deep thought, careful planning,
and immense artistic wisdom.”
-----Ernst Gombrich (modern critic)
