Euclid and others

Here on the right-hand side of the painting, Raphael represents a number of later Greek philosophers—mathema-ticians, really. Again, none of these individuals could ever have appeared in the same room with any other, both because of separations of time and place. But this was never Raphael’s point. Rather, the painting shows the affinities and relations of the greatest names in Greek and near Eastern philosophy.
The four figures on the left of this detail are apparently only students, and thus unidentifiable as specific philosophers (though attempts have been made to identify them as portraits of specific Italian noblemen). Clicking on the faces of the five figures on the right, however, will bring up information about them.

Zoroaster
-- part contents for card part 8
----- text -----
This figure has been traditionally identified as Zoroaster (or Zarathushtra), a early sixth century B.C. Persian religious teacher. There is a significant cosmological component to Zoroastrianism, which presumably explains Zoroaster’s pre-sence in the painting, as well as the globe he is holding.

Ptolemy
-- part contents for card part 13
----- text -----
This figure is surely meant to represent the great second century A.D. mathematician and astronomer, Ptolemy (Claudius Ptolemaeus). Ptolemy’s astro- nomical system constituted the authoritative astronomical explanation until Copernicus—whose revolutionary works were still some twenty years in the future at the time of this painting.
The identification is certain because of a mistake Raphael makes: he confuses the astro- nomer with one of the Mace-donian kings of Egypt, also named Ptolemy (probably with Ptolemy I, who founded the library at Alexandria), as can be seen by the crown this Ptolemy is wearing.

Euclid
-- part contents for card part 17
----- text -----
The central figure of this group is the great Greek mathematician, Euclid, here seen in the midst of demonstrating a theorem by construction, his own body bent into the shape of a compass like the one he is using in his work. Author of the “Elements” • Euclid was a late fourth century B.C. Alexandrian, and so he too, therefore, could never have historically been in this scene.

The corpus of Euclid’s geometry is found in thirteen books called the “Elements.” The geometry is more inter-esting than most geometries that are called Euclidean, proceeding not only by deductive proof, but just as emphatically by the construction of mathematical objects. (We see Euclid perform-ing one of these constructions here.) There is a certain drama to the “Elements,” too. Book One ends with a proof of the so-called Pythagorean theorem; book Thirteen with a proof that there are only four regular solids. It is highly unlikely that Euclid wrote all thirteen books of the “Elements.”

Raphael and Sodoma
-- part contents for card part 23
----- text -----
These two figures cannot be identified as specific philosophers or mathematicans. But they have traditionally been identified as a self-portrait of Raphael (the left-most face) and a portrait of the painter G.A. Sodoma, who had worked at the decoration of the Stanza della Segnatura before Raphael. The figures are late additions, and do not appear in the cartoon for this painting.
Raphael Sanzio was born April 6, 1483 in Urbino, the son a painter, Giovanni di Sante di Piero. By 1500 he was a pupil of the artist Perugino. At a certain point he moved to Florence, but by 1508 was in Rome, probably because he had heard of commissions Pope Julius II was extending for the decoration of some papal apartments. By 1509 he was employed on the Stanza della Segnatura, and soon became the principal Vatican artist after Michelangelo. He was so avidly sought for artistic commissions that much of his work in the Vatican was actually executed by his assistants. At his early death in 1520 he occupied an extraordinary artistic and social position in Rome.
