Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Art - History of Art, grade: 1,7, University of Essex (Art History), course: The High Renaissance in Italy, language: English, abstract: In 1508 Michelangelo began with his working on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, he completed it four years later. His frescoes show stories of the Old Testament about creation and fall of humankind and give an anticipation of salvation through Christ. Michelangelo at first did not want to paint the ceiling because he saw himself as sculptor and thought of the commission as trap of his rivals. Moreover, it was unusual for ceiling frescoes to show narration, they were in general regarded as minor compared to walls. Michelangelo, undeniably, taught art history better, his artwork became a masterpiece of High Renaissance. This essay is going to examine Michelangelo’s concerns in decorating the ceiling, especially in regard to the representation of narration and how successful his attempts were.

A counted cross-stitch pattern of the entire Sistine Chapel Ceiling. Included in the book are 45 full color, individual patterns (one for every scene) and instructions on how they may be stitched together, or individually. These patterns are not computer generated. They have been meticulously created one square at a time. This allowed me to to transform the curved Sistine Chapel Ceiling into a flat pattern. There are no special stitches in the pattern, not even backstitch (except the lettering on the signs). There are only 1/4, 3/4 and full cross-stitches. Also, all the different individual pieces have been designed to interlock with the scenes around them. Although you may find patterns of parts of the Sistine Chapel Ceiling elsewhere, as an aggregate you will not find a similar pattern anywhere.

In 1508, Pope Julius II commissioned Michelangelo to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. The thirty-three-year-old Michelangelo had very little experience of the physically and technically taxing art of fresco; and, at twelve thousand square feet, the ceiling represented one of the largest such projects ever attempted. Nevertheless, for the next four years he and a hand-picked team of assistants laboured over the vast ceiling, making thousands of drawings and spending back-breaking hours on a scaffold fifty feet above the floor. The result was one of the greatest masterpieces of all time. This fascinating book tells the story of those four extraordinary years and paints a magnificent picture of day-to-day life on the Sistine scaffolding - and outside, in the upheaval of early sixteenth-century Rome.

In 1985, when browsing a book on the Ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, Eurico Poggi was taken with the absolute certainty that the painting registered as Moses and the Bronze Serpent is the representation of a poem called The Hymn of the Pearl. Very popular in the ancient world, the poem was among the texts known as Acts of Thomas, by the Apostle Thomas. The connection of the poem with the famous paintings seemed non-existent. One day, Eurico Poggi found a short account of the first mass held in the Sistine Chapel. This account mentions that, in 1483, the Chapel was consecrated to Our Lady of the Assumption. Suddenly, Eurico Poggi recalls a Christian tradition that describes the Apostle Thomas as the only witness of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. Intrigued, Eurico Poggi decided to look carefully at the symbolic elements present in the images of the Sistine Chapel Ceiling. His journey through the paintings reveals the true theme developed by Michelangelo Buonarroti. In the step by step of the discoveries, the search for proof that there is a hidden pearl in the center of the painting that he believes to be The Hymn of the Pearl.
