Self-Portrait with a Friend

The painting represents two bust figures on a dark background; Raphael is described here in the scene behind a friend whose identity is not certain; the artist, the background, occupying the left part of the painting, places his left hand on the shoulder of his friend while looking at the spectator. The second character, occupying the central space with a twisting movement of the neck, turns towards the artist to look at him; he points his index finger at the viewer as if to show something or someone, his left hand resting on the hilt of his sword.

Description

Raphael

His Madonnas made him a master of the Italian Renaissance revered by the greatest painters, from Jacques-Louis David to Pablo Picasso, including Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres and Eugène Delacroix. The divine Raphael (1483–1520), with a soft and suave brush, is the author of famous frescoes for the Vatican. More than a painter, Raphaël is a true myth of the history of art: precocious talent, lover of Fornarina, enamored with antiquity, he knew how to combine the greatness of a Michelangelo with the suave modeling of 'a Leonardo da Vinci. It alone sums up the spirit of the Renaissance.
