The Fire in the Borgo 1514 Fresco Stanza dell'Incendio di Borgo, Palazzi Pontifici, Vatican The group in the left foreground, for example (made up of an old man on the shoulders of a young man, and a child), may be drawn from the episode of the Aeneid in which Aeneas escapes with his father, Anchises and his son, Ascanius. The nude descending from the wall at left recalls the heroic figures of Michelangelo.Artist:RAFFAELLO Sanzio Title: The Fire in the Borgo (detail) Painted in 1501-1550 , Italian - - painting : religious

The Expulsion of Heliodorus from the Temple 1511-12 Fresco Stanza di Eliodoro, Palazzi Pontifici, Vatican Raphael's depiction of the Pope Julius II in the fresco is as penetrating as the London portrait of Julius. According to Vasari, the reason Raphael was so well-liked was probably because he portrayed so many people at the papal court to their satisfaction in these frescoes.Artist:RAFFAELLO Sanzio Title: The Expulsion of Heliodorus from the Temple (detail) Painted in 1501-1550 , Italian - - painting : religious
