Romano (Giulio dei Giannuzzi — Also Called Giulio Pippi) 1492-1546

As Raphael’s pupil, Giulio Romano painted the architectural backgrounds of Raphael’s frescoes in the Vatican, and this led to his studying architecture. His masterpiece is the Palazzo del Tè at Mantua, where he also built a part of the Palazzo Ducale. He carried out Raphael’s decorations in the Villa Madama.
