From dj: "Oppé's book has long been recognized as one of the pioneer scholarly works of art history. Sixty years of subsequent research and criticism have added to our knowledge of Raphael, but they have not fundamentally affected the corpus of finished paintings which Oppé confronted with his habitual skepticism, years for beauty, and astringent good sense." Now re-edited with new biographical introduction, a succinct guide, and the inclusion of many of the drawings which illustrated the workshop procedures of Raphael. ; 14 color plates 273 plates in b&w; 11 x 8 1/2 inches; 153 pages.
