His treatment of individual artists was often harsh and niggardly, but of his dealings with art as a whole Bishop Creighton rightly declares : " he did not merely employ great artists, he impressed them with a sense of his own greatness, and called out all that was strongest and noblest in their 244 Venetian encroachments on the Papal...
175 ページ - Seated in an arm-chair, with head bent downwards, the Pope is in deep thought. His furrowed brow and his deep-sunk eyes tell of energy and decision. The downdrawn corners of his mouth betoken constant dealings with the world. Raffaelle has caught the momentary repose of a restless and passionate spirit...
