This is a wall fresco in Room of the Immaculate Conception This in the ceiling in that room A close up of the seal of Pope Pius IX dated 1855 on the ceiling The Virgin Mary Another wall fresco And another oneA ceiling painted by Michelangelo A close up of one the sections. Another pretty ceiling The Disputation of the Sacrament by Raphael – one of the first paintings he was commissioned to do in the Apostolic Palace, he was commissioned to do several rooms now known as the Raphael Stanze. This is the The Fire in the Borgo is a painting by the workshop of the Italian renaissance artist Raphael. Though it is assumed that Raphael did make the designs for the complex composition, the fresco was most likely painted by his assistant Giulio Romano.
