Description:
|
Work on the Stanza della Segnatura was probably completed in 1512: in that year Raphael began work on another room, the Stanza d’Eliodoro. When the last frescoes in the Stanza d’Eliodoro, the Old Testament scenes on the ceiling, were complete in 1514, Raphael was one of the most celebrated artists in Europe. The room's subjects were developed specifically for this room and for Julius II personally. The general theme is that of God's intervention in human destiny; the ceiling has episodes of divine intervention in the history of Israel.
