Raphael a Collection of Fifteen Pictures and a Portrait of the Painter (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from Raphael a Collection of Fifteen Pictures and a Portrait of the Painter

The object of this collection of prints is to introduce the student to Raphael through the pictures which appeal directly to the imagination with some story interest. With this characteristic as the leading principle of choice, the variety of subjects is perhaps as wide as the condi tions admit. No attempt is made to represent all the sides of the painter's art; his portraits are ignored and his Madonnas inadequately represented, in order to give place to pictures which awaken as many points of interest as possible. Within these narrow limits Raphael, as an illustrator and a composer, is even in these few pictures.
