Despite his well-known dislike of painting, Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (Michelangelo) painted a masterwork comprised of some 300 figures, adorning more than 5800 square feet of the St Peter's Sistine Chapel. In this particular detail from the Sistine Chapel, God creates Adam. The symbolic depiction of this life-giving act is one of the most profound and awe-inspiring artistic images ever painted.

Customer Reviews
I think the picture is fantastic. There is so much detail on it. I had already bought the picture of just Adam's and God's hands. When I found this one on your site, I had to get it also. I am so glad that I did. The colors are very good and look like they did online. I am very pleased and glad that I have it.

I've found little mention of this in art history books, but the figure of God is composed in a cross section of the human brain. Michaelangelo was doing disections at the time (against the law) so nobody knew this. It represents God as the all-knowing. Very clever and a great conversation piece. If you look under his left arm you see Eve. She is already thought out. Just an FYI.

Arrived quickly and as promised, appears to be good quality framing and canvas printing. Decent size, but still overpriced I think
