Fotoreproducties van prenten naar fresco's met voorstellingen van de bouw van de Ark van Noach en de Zondvloed door Rafaël voor de loggia's in het Vaticaan before 1861

This is a photographic reproduction by Gustav Schauer, created before 1861, of two frescoes depicting the construction of Noah's Ark and the Flood, painted by Raphael for the Vatican Loggias. Schauer (1826-1902) was known for his photomechanical reproductions of artworks, which made them accessible to a wider audience. The images show the meticulous detail and dramatic storytelling of Raphael's work, and provide insights into the Renaissance artist's interpretation of Biblical scenes.
