"1504: A Journey Through Time and Art" Step into the year 1504, where history intertwines with masterpieces of art. In this captivating era, we encounter a plethora of significant events and remarkable creations that have left an indelible mark on our world. One such masterpiece is Raphael's "Madonna & Child, " also known as the Grand Duke Madonna. Painted on a panel between 1504-07, it showcases the divine bond between mother and child, radiating love and serenity. As we wander through St John's Gate in Clerkenwell, we are transported to another realm. This medieval gateway stands as a testament to centuries gone by, whispering tales of knights and chivalry. In the skies above us soars the Lockheed C-130H Hercules 1504 aircraft – a symbol of strength and resilience. Its mighty wings carry stories of courage from every mission it undertakes. Speaking of great figures in history, Stepan the Great emerges as a prominent name during this time. His legacy echoes through generations, leaving behind tales of his leadership prowess. The tomb of Fernando & Isabela serves as a solemn reminder of their reigns over Castilla and England respectively. Their rule shaped nations and influenced countless lives during their time on earth. Amidst all these historical marvels lies Catherine of Aragon – Queen consort to King Henry VIII – whose story unfolds with both triumphs and tragedies within her tumultuous life. Isabella I the Catholic takes center stage too; her reign marked by political astuteness while fostering exploration that led to Christopher Columbus' voyage across uncharted waters. Boeing C-22C 83-4618 gracefully glides through azure skies - yet another testament to human ingenuity in aviation technology during this period. Raphael himself appears alongside his friend Fra Bartolommeo in a chromolithograph capturing their artistic camaraderie—a glimpse into the world of Renaissance artistry.
