SPECIAL EXHIBITION
Raphael: Sublime Poetry
A true titan of the Italian Renaissance, Raffaello di Giovanni Santi (Italian, 1483–1520)—better known as Raphael—matched ambition with lyricism to create works with both intellectual heft and emotional depth, a necessary skill in the complex political landscape of Renaissance courts.

About the Artwork

Apples and Grapes, 1879–80. Claude Monet. Oil on canvas. Gift of Henry R. Luce, 1957.
This is one of three tabletop still lifes depicting a basket of apples and grapes that Monet painted in 1879–80, when a spell of bad weather forced him to retreat indoors. In late November 1879, his future stepdaughter Marthe Hoschedé took note of a "painting of fruits" in progress, when she recorded that Monet was "working hard at his still lifes which are very pretty."
