	Pope Julius II
		Julius II, born Giuliano della Rovere, Roman Catholic Pope from the 1st of November 1503 to the 21st of February 1513, was born at Savona in 1443.
		Julius II from the beginning repudiated the system of nepotism which had flourished under Sixtus IV, Innocent VIII, and Alexander VI, and set himself with courage and determination to restore, consolidate and extend the temporal possessions of the Church.

		Raphael's portrait of Pope Julius II was a masterpiece acquired, as it were, by accident in 1970, when what was thought to be a copy was recognised as the original, and therefore as one of the most precious creations of the Renaissance.
		Julius would - literally - be an even more looming figure than he is. It would be harder for history to do its honeyed work of forgetting, for us to see Raphael's painting as one of a holy old man instead of a half-mad militarist.

		Along with his violent outbursts and warmongering, Pope Julius II took upon himself to restore the Sistine Chapel and pretty much intimidated Michelangelo into painting the ceiling even though the artist considered himself primarily a sculptor and was particularly unfamiliar with the temperamental art of fresco.
