#Raphael Sanzio da Urbino was born & died #OTD (6 Apr 1483 – 6 Apr 1520). His depiction of Justice in the #Vatican's Sala di Costantino #fresco #mural (c.1519-20) replaces her traditional sword with...an #ostrich. Anybody know why? 🤔(Hint: think possible #AncientEgypt influences...)

"Given the familiarity of the David, it is difficult for us to appreciate just how novel it is. I believe David looks as it does because Michelangelo... was free to carve a completely original work. And that is precisely what he did." https://www.artnews.com/art-news/news/how-michelangelo-made-david-into-a-giant-2412/?fbclid=IwAR2buw03QR0pKVDQgVTpaY_lC3D_I96FC-N-Y7DbT9WCSHRPROVVeM3tbAg

Still at the V&A: the stony profile and flying ribbons of 28 year old Francesco Cinzio Benincasa, poet laureate, Hungarian diplomat and humanist. Made probably somewhere near Urbino by an unknown artist in the late 1470s.

An irresistible detail from a tiny predella panel by Donatello’s friend, Masaccio: two cloaked men look on as the three kings arrive. Lent to the V&A’s Donatello exhibition by the Gemaldegalerie, Berlin. #masaccio #magi #gemaldegalerie #donatello #predella #renaissance #italianrenaissance #vam #arthistory
