In 1508 he was called directly by Pope Julius II, who wanted to renew the art of the capital; he thus dedicated himself to the papal rooms: Segnatura, Eliodoro and to the tapestries of the Sistine Chapel.

Having become one of the greatest artists in Italy, he opened his own workshop, teaching the art to many promising young people: Lotti, Vincidor and Tamagni.

Raphael was also a great architect collaborating in the design of St. Peter's Basilica and other important Roman buildings.
