Description
w:en:Raphael's The Meeting between Leo the Great (painted as a portrait of Leo X) and Attila Fresco, 1514, Stanza di Eliodoro, Palazzi Pontifici, Vatican [1]
Date 1514
date QS:P571,+1514-00-00T00:00:00Z/9
Notes The fresco was completed after the death of Julius II (pontiff from 1503 to 1513), during the pontificate of his successor Leo X (pontiff from 1513 to 1521). In fact the latter appears twice in the same scene, portrayed in the guise of Pope Leo the Great and as cardinal. According to legend, the miraculous apparition of Saints Peter and Paul armed with swords during the meeting between Pope Leo the Great and Attila (452 A.D.) caused the king of the Huns to desist from invading Italy and marching on Rome.[2] Source: Web gallery of Art: [3]
