I will not expand on the merits of this unsurpassed masterpiece by Michelangelo, I will add that other excellent artists are the authors of 12 frescoes: Botticelli, Pinturicchio, Ghirlandao, Perugimno, Signorelli, Rosselli, della Gatta, d'Antonio. Although, of course, the main titanic work was done by Michelangelo.
Let me remind you that initially all the characters of the Last Judgment were depicted by Michelangelo naked, after the censorship of the church, the figures were draped by the artist Daniele di Volttara.
It is better to visit the chapel with a guide to understand which fresco means what.
I did not set the maximum rating of 10 points, because it is extremely inconvenient to watch because of the huge crowds, the noise of the crowd and the attendants who periodically cover the noise with a thunderous warning "Silence! ". Photos are strictly prohibited, even without a flash, they can immediately withdraw.
