The Loggia Of Raphael : A Vatican Art Treasure

Attribution
Nicole Dacos ; translated from the French by Josephine Bacon
Publication Details
Book, 1st ed, Abbeville Press Publishers, 2008

The first and second concern the grotesques and the scenes from the Bible, respectively, while the third examines the lives and artistic styles of the members of Raphael’s workshop who worked with him on the loggia. The fourth part traces the loggia’s enduring influence: the grotesque ornamental style elaborated by Raphael has been imitated as far afield as the corridors of the United States Capitol, and the Bible scenes served as influential models for popular prints.
