ABSTRACT
The next two giants of High Renaissance art to follow
Leonardo in the monumental traditions of the fi fteenth
century were Michelangelo (1475-1564) and Raphael
(1483-1520). Michelangelo produced his major early
works in Florence and Rome; Raphael’s were made in
Urbino, Perugia, and Florence. In both instances, the
artists gravitated primarily to Florence and Rome, which
were the major centers of patronage.
