Deliverance of Saint Peter - Painting

art.wikisort.org - Painting

The Liberation of Saint Peter is a fresco painting by the Italian High Renaissance artist Raphael.[1] It was painted in 1514 as part of Raphael's commission to decorate with frescoes the rooms that are now known as the Stanze di Raffaello, in the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican. It is located in the Stanza di Eliodoro, which is named after The Expulsion of Heliodorus from the Temple. The painting shows how Saint Peter was liberated from Herod's prison by an angel, as described in Acts 12. It is technically an overdoor.

Deliverance of Saint Peter

Artist	Raphael
Year	1514
Type	Fresco
Dimensions	560 cm (18 ft 4 in) wide
Location	Apostolic Palace, Vatican City

The fresco shows three scenes in symmetrical balance formed by the feigned architecture and stairs. In the centre the angel wakes Peter, and on the right guides him past the sleeping guards. On the left side one guard has apparently noticed the light generated by the angel and wakes a comrade, pointing up to the miraculously illumined cell. This adds drama to the serene exit of Peter at the right.
