How little Raphael was understood in recent times is shown by the fact that Goethe, when visiting Dresden, did not admire the Sistine Madonna, having heard from the official at the Museum—and he was only expressing the general opinion of the day—that there was something commonplace about the facial expression of the Child Jesus, that the two Angels at the bottom of the picture could only have been added by some dauber, that the Madonna herself could not be the work of Raphael, but must have been painted over. If we look through the whole of eighteenth-century literature, we shall find hardly anything about Raphael; even Voltaire does not mention him.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Ancient Wisdom and the Heralding of the Christ Impulse","site_heading":null,"date":"1912-05-08","location":null,"word_count":146,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/143/1912-05-08/p019","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:length","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Dorothy S.

Wie wenig man ihn in früheren Zeiten verstand, das kann man daran ersehen, daß Goethe in Dresden nicht etwa die Sixtinische Madonna bewunderte; denn er hatte von dem Museumsbeamten gehört, was damals allgemeine Meinung war, das Jesuskind habe im Gesichtsausdruck etwas Gemeines, die beiden Engel unten könne überhaupt nur ein Stümper hinzugemalt haben, die Madonna selbst könnte so, wie wir sie sehen, nicht von Raffael herrühren, sie müsse übermalt worden sein. - Wir können die ganze Literatur des 18.
