Disputation of the Holy Sacrament

History, Religious and Mythological Paintings

The Disputation of the Holy Sacrament, also known as the Disputa, is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance painter Raphael, painted between 1509 and 1510. It was the first fresco Raphael completed for the room now known as the Stanza della Segnatura in the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican, a chamber that at the time served as the private papal library where the supreme papal tribunal met. The work forms part of Raphael's commission to decorate the Stanze di Raffaello with frescoes.
