Michelangelo’s “THE LAST JUDGMENT”
|
֎ Featuring 2 Paintings, 1 Photograph and Details ֎
REVELATION «Chapter 20» Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what he had done. Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. If anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

Interesting to me that Michelangelo chose this as his subject for the altar wall, the [horizontal] focal point of the Sistine Chapel

Good Morning Dan, and joyful day to all,
Most unique display today; an epic work for the ages.
God is not mocked, and those leaders who laugh at our Lord’s truth, will one day grovel in quaking terror, screaming for mercy...
Thank You Dan !!

Looks like MA invented a few extra muscles.
Also, interesting that hell seems to be like Earth.

Wow. That is the best picture of the size and scope of Michelangelo’s work at the chapel.
I must say, Michelangelo must have been pretty athletic as well as talented - to shimmy up and down so much scaffolding to create his masterpiece.

And he didn’t see himself as a painter, but as a sculptor.
