Gallery, the Madonna della Sedia (1516-17), Palazzo Pitti, Florence, with many other pictures mentioned in the accompanying list of his works; designed the Cartoons (1515-16), S. Kensington Museum, London; painted a great number of portraits, decorated the Loggie of the Vatican with 48 frescos (1516-19), grotesques, and arabesques, carried out by his pupils; executed for Agostino Chigi the frescos of Galatea (1514), and History of Psyche, at the Farnesina (1517), with the assistance of Giulio Romano and Il Fattore; designed the mosaics and the statue of Jonah for the Chigi Chapel at S. M. del Popolo, the frescos of the History of Venus and Cupid (1519), and painted the Holy Family of Francis I. (1518), Louvre, Paris, the Madonna di San Sisto (1519), Dresden Gallery, and last of all the Transfiguration (1519-20), Vatican Gallery, upon which he was at work at the time of his death. If in the work of Raphael's Roman period, here enumerated but in part, that indescribable, spring-like freshness is wanting which marks those of his Florentine period, its absence is compensated by an unrivalled skill in composition, an added power of expression, an increased grandeur of style, an improvement in the use of colour, a mastery of portraiture, and a perception of ideal beauty which culminates in the Madonna di San Sisto. Nor must we, in speaking of this great painter's life-work, forget to mention the immense number of exquisite studies and designs in pen and ink, silverpoint, pencil, and chalk, which constitute by no means the least precious part of the world's inheritance from the Prince of Painters.
