POPE LEO X KISSES THE HAND OF RAPHAEL AT HIS FUNERAL Art by Pietro Michis 1894 Print
This is a Wood Engraving / illustration / print that has been taken from a book dated 1894 and is ready for framing. Measures approximately 11 1/2 x 9 inches.
Raphael's funeral was extremely grand, attended by large crowds. According to a journal by Paris de Grassis, four cardinals dressed in purple carried his body, the hand of which was kissed by the Pope. The inscription on Raphael's marble sarcophagus, an elegiac distich written by Pietro Bembo, reads: Here lies that famous Raphael by whom Nature feared to be conquered while he lived, and when he was dying, feared herself to die.
