# Stucco Reliefs in a Pilaster [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [GIOVANNI DA UDINE]() - Date: 1501-1550 - Technique: Stucco ## Commentary For the decoration of the loggia, Raphael devised the scheme and provided the compositions for the narratives, while the actual work was delegated to the most senior assistants. Giulio Romano took charge of the figurative scenes with Gianfrancesco Penni collaborating on the preparation of the cartoons and Giovanni da Udine as overseer of the decorative areas. As part of the decorative scheme, there is a series of reliefs on the pilasters. The vignettes in three of the stuccoes depart from the prevalent use of ancient models to show actions not only taken from modern life but referring specifically to the work in progress at the site of the loggia. ## Related artworks - [Decoration of Cardinal Bibbiena's Loggetta]() - [Decoration of Cardinal Bibbiena's Loggetta]() - [Decoration of the Loggia di Raffaello \(detail\)]() - [Decoration of the Stufetta \(bathroom\) of Clement VII Stufetta]() - [Studies of Nuts]() - [Study of a Flying Sparrow]() - [Study of a Parrot and Other Birds]() - [Study of a Parrot]() - [Triumph of Bacchus \(detail\)]() - [Triumph of Bacchus]() - [Venus, Ceres and Juno]() - [View of the Loggia di Raffaello]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
