Answer: Raphael rejected Da Vinci's mystery and dusky modelling.
Explanation: Raphael emulated Leonardo's pyramidal composition and gestures like the ones he used in Madonna of the Rocks to unite the Virgin, John the Baptist, the Christ Child, and an angel but rejected his dusky modeling and mystery.
Raphael set his Madonna in a well-lit landscape and imbued her with grace, dignity and beauty. Both paintings were a few years apart and were both oil on wood paintings, although Da Vinci's Madonna of the Rocks was transferred to canvas.
