Skolen i Athen (italiensk Scuola di Atene) er en fresko i rummet Stanza della Segnatura i Vatikanpaladset i Rom. Freskoen er et af de mest kendte værker af renæssancemaleren Rafael, som også malede de tre andre freskoer i det samme rum. Rafael udførte freskoen fra 1509 til 1511 og motivet viser mange af antikkens mest kendte græske filosofer.
Stanza della Segnatura var det første i en række rum, som Rafael blev bestilt til at dekorere, og Skolen i Athen, som repræsenterer filosofi, var sandsynligvis det tredje af malerierne i dette rum, som han færdiggjorde, efter La Disputa (teologi) på den modsatte væg og Parnassus (litteratur).[1] Skolen i Athen er længe blevet set som "Rafaels mesterværk og det perfekte billede på den klassiske ånd i renæssancen".[2]

Returning to the center of the composition, we notice a figure who lies at the feet of Plato and Aristotle in quiet isolation; here, I propose, is Socrates".

- ^ Raphael's lover Fornarina is portrayed in a famous painting in the National Gallery of Ancient Art in Rome. This identification has been introduced on 2002 by Matteo Smolizza during his cooperation with Lorenza Mochi Onori, former Director of the Museum, in the occasion of the Exhibit La Fornarina di Raffaello, Milan, Fondazione Arte e Civiltà, March 14 – June 2, 2002. It was later investigated on the basis of 1) position of the portrait (specular to Raphael's one); 2) appearance compared with contemporary Raphael's drawings; 3) strictly contemporary texts by Raphael to the woman; 4) fresco's general meaning.
