ABOUT THE OPERA:
"Angels and Cherubs" is a collective term often associated with the works of the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael. Throughout his career, Raphael depicted angels and cherubs in various paintings, frescoes, and tapestries, imbuing them with a sense of divine beauty and celestial grace. Some notable examples include his frescoes in the Vatican Palace, such as "The Disputation of the Holy Sacrament" and "The School of Athens," where angels and cherubs are depicted as ethereal beings surrounding scenes of religious and philosophical significance. Raphael's portrayal of angels and cherubs reflects his mastery of composition, color, and expression, contributing to his reputation as one of the greatest artists of the Renaissance period.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Raphael, born Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino (1483–1520), was an influential Italian painter and architect of the High Renaissance. Recognized for his exceptional talent and versatility, Raphael's artworks exemplify harmony, balance, and idealized beauty.
Apart from his contributions to fresco painting, Raphael was also celebrated for his numerous altarpieces, portraits, and Madonnas. His works continue to inspire artists and art lovers worldwide, cementing his legacy as one of the greatest painters of the Renaissance era.

ABOUT "AFFRESCO"
Any art lover, as well as anyone who has visited Italy, must have had the opportunity to appreciate an affresco painting.
Most prominent ancient Roman paintings consist of affresco, as do the holy stories depicted within medieval churches.
The magnificent decorations found within the halls of villas dating from the fifth, sixth, and seventh centuries also feature affresco paintings.
The affresco painting method is the basis for the most impressive mural works of Italian art and is considered to be the most widely used artistic technique during the Renaissance period by world-known artists such as Botticelli, Michelangelo, Raffaello, Signorelli, and Piero Della Francesca and more.
