Encyclopedic overview

Giulio Pippi (c. 1499 – 1 November 1546), known as Giulio Romano ( US: /ˌdʒuːljoʊ rəˈmɑːnoʊ/ JOOL-yoh rə-MAH-noh( Italian: [ˈdʒuːljo roˈmaːno]) and sometimes known in French as Jules Romain, was an Italian painter and architect. He was a pupil of Raphael, and his stylistic deviations from High Renaissance classicism help define the sixteenth-century style known as Mannerism. Giulio's drawings have long been treasured by collectors; contemporary prints of them engraved by Marcantonio Raimondi were a significant contribution to the spread of sixteenth-century Italian style throughout Europe.
