It's simply amazing that it made it through the chisel incident. I saw it after it was put behind glass. I only wish I could draw that well. Ain't gonna happen...

Just the folds in the cloth alone make that the most amazing artwork ever created. And #2 (the Sistine Chapel, with the Last Judgement) is just a short walk away.

That Michelangelo... he was pretty good.
