Raphael

Raphael


From 28 September to 6 January 2013 
@ Teylers Museum


In collaboration with Vienna's Albertina Museum, Teylers Museum is proud to present the Netherlands' first exhibition on Raphael (1483 - 1520). With Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael was one of the greatest artists of the Italian Renaissance: his Madonnas and Vatican frescos are world famous, and his refined style has been admired and emulated down the centuries. 

Paintings on display in the Netherlands for the first time 
More than 90 drawings by the master and his school are on display in Haarlem for more than three months. 
Due to their fragility, the drawings are rarely exhibited. The inclusion of two paintings from the Uffizi in Florence and the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin is particularly notable. They show us what Raphael's drawings led to. Raphael's paintings have never before been exhibited in the Netherlands. Together, these artworks give an excellent overview of his glittering career.
