A major immersive exhibition using the most precisely detailed photography ever captured Michelangelo’s greatest work.
With the official support of the Vatican, this book accompanies an immersive exhibition—truly an event of historic magnitude—and is the result of years of careful micro-photography faithfully documenting the Sistine Chapel in lifelike glory.
Thanks to innovative Gigapixel technology, the lush original colors and remarkable details of Michelangelo’s masterpiece can be seen in a series of unprecedented close-up photographs. The volume explores the history of the Sistine Chapel, Michelangelo’s The Last Judgement, widely considered his magnum opus, as well as sublime contributions by Renaissance master painters Botticelli, Ghirlandaio, Perugino, Rosselli, and Signorelli.
Believed to be "the greatest representation of human art and spirituality" in the world, the Sistine Chapel is one of the most visited artworks globally with nearly 22,000 daily visitors, yet it is also part of one of humanity’s most sacred spaces, a consecrated chapel at the Vatican, the heart of the Roman Catholic Church. This book is an essential tool in helping the viewer understand the beauty and meaning of this most sublime work of art and architecture.
