Disputation of the Holy Sacrament - Wikipedia Disputation of the Holy Sacrament Disputation of the Sacrament Artist Raphael Year 1509 -- 1510 Type Fresco 500 cm × 770 cm ( 200 in × 300 in ) Location Apostolic Palace, Vatican City The Disputation of the Sacrament ( Italian : La disputa del sacramento ), or Disputa, is a painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael. It was painted between 1509 and 1510 as only the first part of Raphael 's commission to decorate with frescoes the rooms that are now known as the Stanze di Raffaello, in the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican. At the time, this room was known as the Stanza della Segnatura, and was the private papal library where the supreme papal tribunal met. Contents 1 Description 2 References 3 Sources 4 External links Description Dante Alighieri. In the painting, Raphael has created a scene spanning both heaven and earth. Above, Christ is surrounded by a halo, with the Blessed Virgin Mary, John the Baptist at his right and left. Other various biblical figures such as Adam ( far left, bared chest ), Jacob ( far right, red robe and sword ) and Moses ( right, holding tablets with the ten commandments ) are to the sides. God the Father sits above Jesus, depicted reigning over the golden light of heaven, and below Christ 's feet is the Holy Spirit. On opposite sides of the Holy Spirit are the four gospels, held by putti. Below, on the altar sits the monstrance. The altar is flanked by theologians who are depicted debating Transubstantiation. Christ 's Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity is the Holy Eucharist, which is discussed by representatives of the Church ; among them are the original four Doctors of the Church ( identified by their names inscribed into their halos ), with Pope Gregory I and Jerome seated to the left of the altar and Augustine and Ambrose to the right, along with Pope Julius II, Pope Sixtus IV, Savonarola and Dante Alighieri. Pope Sixtus IV is the gold dressed pope in the bottom of the painting. Directly behind Sixtus is Dante, wearing red and sporting a laurel wreath ( symbolizing his greatness as a poet ). The bald figure reading a book and leaning over a railing in the left hand corner could be Raphael 's mentor and Renaissance architect Bramante.
