7 Things You Didn’t Know About the Sistine Chapel
by Shelley Esaak/ThoughtCo.
Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling is one of the most influential artworks of all time and a foundational work of Renaissance Art. Painted directly on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican, the masterpiece depicts key scenes from the Book of Genesis. The complex narratives and skillfully painted human figures stunned viewers when the painting was first unveiled to the public in 1512 and continues to impress the thousands of pilgrims and tourists from around the world who visit the chapel every day.

Highly recommend the film, “The Agony and the Ecstacy”(1965), with Charlton Heston and Rex Harrison. A pretty good account of the Sistine Chapel ceiling.
