Item: Creation of Adam by Michelangelo Buonarroti

The 'Creation of Adam' detail of hands from the Sistine Chapel, by Michelangelo Buonarroti. Commissioned by Pope Julius II, from 1508-1512 Michelangelo spells out the story of the Creation on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Here, the heroic Adam lifting his languid hand to his Creator, is indifferent to the coming agonies of being alive. Produced on artist canvas, this giclee is hand-embellished to re-create the original texture. Comes ready to hang with gallery-quality wood frame and brass nameplate. Image size: 18"x23". Overall size 26"x2"x31"
