The Disputation of the Sacrament, Fresco g by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael.

The Disputation of the Sacrament, Fresco g by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael. It was painted between 1509 and 1510. in the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican. 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 and Divinity is the Holy Eucharist.
