Overview"Raphael - Pages of the Book of Life at Twenty, by Alphonse de Lamartine, although not written in metrical form is really a poem--a prose poem. Never upon canvas of painter were spread more delicate tints, hues, colors, shadings, blendings and suggestions, than in these pages. Not only do we find ourselves, in the descriptions of scenery, near to Nature's heart, but, in the story itself, near to the heart of man. Aix in Savoy was, in Lamartine's time, a fashionable resort for valitudinarians and invalids. Among the patrons of the place was Madame Charles, whose memory Lamartine has immortalized as ""Julie"" in Raphael and as ""Elvire"" in the beautiful lines of the Meditations."
