Multi-award-winning director Phil Grabsky takes a fresh look at this Renaissance giant and uses his camera to explain why Raphael is still one of the greatest masters of his time. The documentary looks at his time in Rome, showing never-before-seen film clips of the formative influence of ancient Rome, including a visit to Nero's Golden Palace, where Raphael himself visited.
