Introduction Raphaël Sanzio (Raffaello Sanzio) was born in the Duchy of Urbino on April 6, 1483, and died in Rome on April 6, 1520. He was the son of a painter and poet for the court of Manto. He grew up at Urbino's court under regency of the Duke and Duchess of Urbino, who died seven months before Raphaël's birth. At 17 he was already considered a master, thanks to everything he learned from his father. His main influences are Leonardo da Vinci's notable works at the Palazzo Della Signoria and in particular his Madonnas, Madonna Esterházy and The Beautiful Gardener, and techniques such as chiaroscuro (chiaroscuro (chiaroscuro), a contrast of light and shadow that he used with moderation, and sfumato (smoky), slightly overcast, rather than dashes, to outline the shapes. And also, Michelangelo, in the works Pieta and Madona and a lot about the artist Fra Bartolomeu, whose learning made him achieve greater techniques and more powerful forms. The first work recorded by Rafael was an altar for the church of San Nicole da Tolentino, in the city of Castello, between Perugia and Urbino. The main characteristics of his works are the paintings characterized by balanced compositions and colors, presence of harmony and tranquility, beautiful and harmonious facial expressions, characters dressed in light clothes, use of oil on canvas, and the approach to themes related to Christianity. His influence is noticed everywhere in the world and his school is one of the most prestigious. Currently, there are rare painters as notable or prodigies like him, and his greatest descent is not in Europe or painting, but music and technology. Raphaël stays alive by influencing many young artists and marking new generations. His works are worth one or two humanities. Rafaela da Silva Melo
