Transfiguration of Jesus (1520) is a painting by Raphael, at Vatican Museum, Vatican, Rome, Italy.
By including the Miracle of the Possessed Boy, Raphael transformed the intimate mystical experience of the Transfiguration into a public event.
Giulio de' Medici commissioned the painting in 1517 for the French Cathedral of Narbonne, but it remained in Rome in San Pietro in Montorio after 1523. Napoleon had it taken to Paris in 1797, and it was brought back to the Vatican in 1815.
