Raphael's mural The School of Athens depicts a philosophical discussion. Some writers have noticed that there are no women depicted in the work. There were women active in ancient Greece in the realms of poetry and literature. Does that make this a sexist painting?

No, of course not. Raphael was just depicting a moment in history in Greece, a place that in those years he depicted had its own customs and traditions. In that time of ancient Greece, for instance, women were not considered citizens in Athens,

Raphael -the great Renaissance painter- did not consider anything against women. It was a painting of a common scene in Greece, and that's it.

The painting School of Athens by Raphael uses the linear perspective technique. The characteristic that the painting contains is "some objects in the painting appear to be close, while others seem to be far away.  Although the pain was flat, the painters could make some objects appear close and others far away. It was also considered as a spacial alignment technique.
