webinar > RAPHAEL IN THE VATICAN: A SPECIAL YEAR FOR THE VATICAN MUSEUMS (IIC San Francisco)

A webinar with Barbara Jatta, Director of the Vatican Museum.

2020 marks the 500th anniversary of the death of the universally acclaimed master of art, Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino. It is a special year for the Vatican Museums because it is here that Raphael’s most important series of frescoes are preserved. The museum also hosts three altarpieces fundamental to an understanding of Raphael’s different artistic phases and the progression of his career in Rome—around 1508—until his premature and sudden death in 1520. Barbara Jatta will discuss Raphael’s Vatican works and the challenges of celebrating this important anniversary during a world pandemic.

This presentation is moderated by prof. Emanuele Lugli, Stanford University.

WHEN: November 10, 2020 – 2:00 PM ET / (11:00 AM PT)
