"Apollo on the Parnassus" is an engraving by the Italian artist Marcantonio Raimondi, created in the early 16th century. Raimondi, known for his skilled printmaking, was a prominent figure in the transmission of the works of the Italian Renaissance to the rest of Europe. This particular engraving is based on a design by Raphael, one of the period's most renowned painters, and reflects the High Renaissance's fascination with classical mythology and harmony.

The work depicts Apollo, the Greek god of music, poetry, and the arts, seated on Mount Parnassus, which was considered the home of the Muses—the inspirational goddesses of the arts in Greek mythology. Surrounding Apollo are various figures, likely representing the Muses and other poets and musicians from antiquity. Apollo is typically shown with attributes such as the lyre, indicative of his role as the patron of music and poetry.

"Apollo on the Parnassus" exemplifies the Renaissance ideal of the artist as an individual touched by divine inspiration. Raimondi's engraving is notable for its fine detail and the way it captures the essence of Raphael's original design. The work is an important example of the collaboration between artists and printmakers during the Renaissance, which allowed for the wider dissemination of artistic styles and themes.

Raimondi's prints were highly influential, and his reproductions of works by artists like Raphael played a significant role in shaping the visual culture of the time. "Apollo on the Parnassus" is not only a testament to Raimondi's technical prowess but also to the collaborative spirit of the Renaissance art world, where the exchange of ideas and the reproduction of artworks contributed to the era's rich tapestry of visual expression.
