Transforming our understanding of Raphael with eloquence in drawing as a research theme
This project aims to gain new understanding of the renowned Renaissance artist. Today, Raphael’s work is broadly viewed as “remote, bland or irrelevant”, writes Catherine Whistler, supernumerary fellow in art history at St John's College, Oxford, in the current Leverhulme Trust newsletter. “Current scholarship presents Raphael as an accomplished interpreter and courtier who managed an efficient workshop, with drawing as a pragmatic stepping-stone towards the final, polished work of art. By exploring the experimental character of drawing and its rhetorical possibilities, I want to ‘make strange’ an over-familiar artist and to stimulate new thinking about drawing in and beyond art history.” Dr Whistler and her collaborator Ben Thomas, an art historian at the University of Kent, are taking Raphael’s “eloquence” as a guiding concept and an interpretative tool in order to unlock a new understanding.
