Excerpt from The Masters of Raffaello (Raphael Sanzio) Raffaello so ardent a desire to behold the works thus commended, that, moved by the love he ever bore to excellence in art, and setting aside all thought of his own interest or inconvenience, he at once proceeded to Florence. These notes form the foundation upon which subsequent writers have, without due investigation, based their statements concerning Raffaello; modern critics have, how ever, deemed it their duty to examine their truth more narrowly.
