Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio) was born in Urbino, Italy on April 6, 1483. He was a High Renaissance painter and architect. Because much of his artwork were produced for the Vatican, they still remain today. There is considered to be three phases of his work: early career (under the influence of his teacher), The Florentine period (when Raphael went to the city for four years), and the final years (artwork produced was considered his best).
