Il 6 aprile 1520 (esattamente a 37 anni dalla sua nascita: era nato il 6 aprile 1483!) spirava in Roma il "divino" Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino. Tutti i dotti e la stessa Corte Papale ne piansero la morte, orbati di tanto genio artistico. L'amico Pietro Bembo, segretario di Leone X, compose di sua mano l'epitaffio per la sua tomba nel Pantheon: "Ille hic est Raphael, timuit quo sospite vinci rerum magna parens et moriente mori".
