Raphael Magister Raffaello

World-renowned tapestry studio Dovecot presents the life and work of Renaissance Master Raphael (1483–1520) in a landmark digital exhibition and tapestry marking his 500th anniversary. In partnership with the Italian Cultural Institute and Magister Art. A multimedia installation, visitors will explore Raphael's artistic genius and experience recreations of his masterpieces including Madonna of the Goldfinch (1505-06), The Deposition of Christ (1507) and The Transfiguration (1516–20). Inspired by Raphael’s genre-defining tapestry designs, Dovecot weavers will create a contemporary tapestry, interpreting a section of Raphael’s famous Sistine Chapel Cartoons (The Royal Collection/V&A).
