Raphael (1483-1520) was for centuries considered the greatest
artist who ever lived. Much of what we know about him comes from
this biography, written by the Florentine painter Giorgio Vasari
and first published in 1550. Vasari's Lives of the Painters was the
first attempt to write a systematic history of Italian art. The
Life of Raphael is a key text not only for the appreciation of
Raphael's own art - whose development and chronology Vasari
describes in detail, together with the spectacular social career of
the first painter to be mooted, it was claimed, as a Cardinal - but
also for its unprecedented attention to theoretical issues.
