10 works across 1 institution
Madrid's Museo del Prado holds 10 works by Raphael (1483–1520) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Raphael died at 37 but left a body of work that established the ideal of the High Renaissance: perfect compositional balance, idealised beauty, and emotional clarity. Born in Urbino, he worked in Perugia, Florence, and Rome, where his Vatican frescoes — including The School of Athens — remain in situ.
