Description:
|
|
Raphael’s first commission at the Vatican was to decorate the Stanza della Segnatura, a room that was almost certainly designed as the library (study) of Pope Julius. He painted first the Disputa (disputation), a composition on three tiers representing the Church, on earth and in heaven, with the Trinity above an altar displaying the Eucharist. In the golden vault is God the Father, on the middle tier is Christ enthroned, flanked by the Virgin and St John the Baptist, with a hemicircle of seated prophets and martyrs ranged on a cloud bank. Below, surrounding the altar, are groups of disputants (really adherents), including the Fathers of the Church. The fresco can be seen as a portrayal of the Church Militant below, and the Church Triumphant above. In the program for the whole room, this panel represents Theology.
