Sacrae Historiae Acta A Raphaele Vrbin. In Vaticanis Xystis Ad Pictvrae Miracvlvm Expressa

Chaperon, Nicolas, Raffael, Renard, Egidio [Gefeierte Pers.] · 1649 · 53 pictures

A 1649 engraved series after Raphael's Vatican Loggia frescoes, published in Rome and issued as a set of Latin-captioned plates. It was made by Nicolas Chaperon and Egidio Renard after Raphael, for scholars and artists studying the Bible story compositions. The plates show crowded biblical scenes in clear linear engraving, with figures in robes gathered around a central event and small framed roundels above, a useful reference for classical group composition and drapery.
