Pablo Picasso once said, “Good artists copy, great artists steal.”

Artists have always borrowed from each other in composition and technique, and during the High Renaissance, artists tried to disguise this creative borrowing whenever possible. Raphael, for example, was a master of such borrowing, because while some artists became famous for their own innovations, Raphael’s popularity came from taking other artists’ innovations and combining them in his own way.
