Each book in Taschen's Basic Art series contains a detailed chronological summary of the artist's life and work, covering the artist's cultural and historical significance, approximately 100 color illustrations with explanations, and a brief biography.
Christof Thoenes's monograph on Raphael provides a comprehensive account of the life and work of Raphael Sanzio (1483–1520), one of the greatest Renaissance artists. Raphael is known for the ideal beauty, clarity of composition, and harmony he brought to his works. Thoenes analyzes key periods of Raphael's career – from his early work in Urbino and Florence, to his peak in Rome, where he created monumental works such as the School of Athens in the Vatican. He particularly emphasizes Raphael's ability to synthesize the influences of Leonardo and Michelangelo into a unique personal style. Through rich pictorial material and expert analysis, Thoenes presents Raphael as an artist whose work represents the pinnacle of the High Renaissance, with a lasting impact on the history of art.
