The Masters II: Raphael

Question 1 • FL-0100310-Introduction to Art History

Which of the following statements about Raphael’s work is true?

Answer
A
Near the end of his life, he produced his best and most famous pieces.
B
He did not produce any work himself, but rather used his name on all his assistants' work.
C
He hired other artists to do some of his "less important" work.
D
none of the above

Explanation

Raphael was a highly productive Renaissance artist who ran a large workshop. He painted many works himself, while assistants helped with some commissions, particularly less important or routine parts of the work. So the true statement is that he hired other artists to do some of his “less important” work; he did not simply put his name on work he never produced.
