Italy Raphael was a master of Italian Renaissance, but his life was short. He was only 37 when he died. In his short life, he painted nearly 300 works, many of which are masterpieces in the history of art. Raphael is a talented painter. By the age of 25, he had completely established his own artistic style. Raphael's large decorative mural for the Vatican's signature hall is the best example, including three murals: Athens Academy, Mount Bahners and Scripture Debate. These works show a humanist's pursuit of truth and happiness. Among them, Athens College is the most praised by the world, which shows that the young Raphael has unparalleled artistic talent.
