Khan Academy: Raphael and His Drawings

Born in Urbino in 1483, Raphael trained with his father and then the Umbrian artist, Perugino. From 1504/5 he worked in Florence where he was much influenced by Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, learning from their depictions of the idealized human body, their understanding of anatomy and the suggestion of movement within these forms. The British Museum has about forty drawings by Raphael. There is also a collection of prints after Raphael.
