Quote by Martina Riemer

“Rafael: „Wow, Princesa, missmutig wie eh und je! Du bist sogar noch besser gelaunt als bei unserer letzten Begegnung. Du solltest es vielleicht mit Lachen probieren – oder zumindest mit einem kleinen Lächeln? Sonst mache ich mir nämlich echt Sorgen um dich. Oder … ich könnte anfangen zu glauben, dass es an mir liegt!? Das wollen wir doch beide nicht, oder?”

“With Ghirlandaio and Fillipino Luppi dead, and Botticelli in a permanent state of depression, Raphael found an affluent audience starved for works of the highest quality. Florentine mercantile society fell in love with his potrayals of the Madonna and Child and the Holy Family-and with him, personally, for his gentle character. The provincialism of his master Perugino had heretofore kept Raphael’s genius under wraps. Leonardo taught him the power of unified, lucid compositions based on geometry, particularly the triangle and the circle. During Michelangelo’s absence, Raphael’s company was sought by everyone, including Michelangelo’s valued friends Taddeo Taddei and Agnolo Doni. In fact, he was such a frequent guest at Taddei’s home, where he would have had plenty of opportunities to study Michelangelo’s tondo, that Raphael gave his patron two paintings as thanks for his many kindnesses, and painted the Madonna deil Cardellino as a wedding gift for his friend Lorenzo Nasi, Taddei’s cousin. In 1505, the Carrera year, Raphael painted the portraits of Doni and his wife, Maddalena. The out-of-towner whom Michelangelo had dismissed as a mere nuisance had grown up.”
