Description: | Ant PRINT SORELLO, Michel; (Spanish; 1700-1765) AFTER RAPHAEL, Raffaello Santi; (Italian; 1483-1520) Raphael provided the decorations for the upper zones of the lateral walls of the Sistine Chapel, which thus directly adjoined the works by his great rival Michelangelo. Instead of frescoes, however, Raphael's contribution took the form of a tapestry cycle depicting scenes from the lives of the Apostles. Raphael's cartoons for the cycle, which are today housed in London, were produced between 1515 and 1518. The tapestries were woven in Arras under Pieter van Aelst, and seven were hung in 1519. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | NEW TESTAMENT : JESUS : LIFE OF THE APOSTLES : DELIVERY OF THE KEY : APOSTLE : LANDSCAPE : CHRIST : VOLUME : ESSEX : TAPESTRY : SISTINE CHAPEL : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
