The collection, long used by every serious scholar of Raphael, has now been photographed by the Warburg Institute and its 5571 images have been reproduced on microfiche. The collection comprises reproductions, from the 16th-19th centuries, of engravings, etchings, lithographs and photographs and includes not only authentic works, but every work to which Raphael's name was ever attached by any definite authority. The collection is arranged by subject, subdivided into surviving pictures and those preserved only through reproductions. This fascinating collection is accompanied by an 8-page printed introduction and guide. Paintings and drawings are followed by portraits.
Explanatory notes accompany each microfilm.

His sketches are a record of all building styles, based on his travels across Europe. His skilled draftsmanship records whole buildings, towers, roofs, staircases, spaces within buildings, doors and windows.
