Raphael and the Renaissance Diva
Lectures

1h 4m
While Michelangelo’s main focus in art was the male nude form, Raphael painted some of the most beautiful and sensual women in the history of art.

Join Dr. Rocky for this webinar where he will explore Raphael’s most celebrated depictions of beautiful women and how he defined the Renaissance Diva.
