Hello there, you eschatological empresses of the end times! I hope you’ll forgive all the giggling on this art history episode of Femininity in the Post-Apocalypse. Photographer Aaron C Packard and I crack jokes about The Last Judgment (1541) painted by Michelangelo Buonarroti in the Sistine Chapel, and Bobby Ford receives his Honorary Doctor of Dystopian Studies degree from UCK!

A collage of four images including a photo of The Last Judgment painted by Michelangelo on the Sistine Chapel wall in order to depict the apocalypse when the dead rise from their graves, a dramatic photograph of multidisciplinary creator, a portrait of an artist near a giant camera, and the “Femininity in the Post-Apocalypse” podcast logo.

Amazing Ceiling Art of the Sistine Chapel

Amazing Ceiling Art of the Sistine Chapel Visiting the Sistine Chapel is an awe-inspiring experience that combines art, history, and spirituality in one of the Vatican's most treasured spaces. Here's how you might experience it: Entry and Atmosphere: Upon entering the Vatican Museums, you'll follow a designated path that winds through various galleries filled with ancient sculptures, tapestries, and paintings. The anticipation builds as you approach the Sistine Chapel, which is often crowded but maintains a hushed, reverent atmosphere. Guards enforce a strict policy of silence to preserve the solemnity of the place. The Chapel Itself: The Sistine Chapel is relatively small, considering its fame, measuring about 40.5 meters long, 13.4 meters wide, and 20.7 meters high. Once inside, you're immediately struck by the grandeur of Michelangelo's frescoes. The ceiling, completed between 1508 and 1512, depicts scenes from Genesis, including the iconic "Creation of Adam." The vivid colors and detailed figures seem to come alive under the chapel's lighting, which has been carefully adjusted to protect the art while enhancing visibility.

This Is My Glasgow

MacKintosh was a big fan of Michelangelo's ceiling in the Sistine Chapel, and these figures are based on it. An early version of the facade drawn by MacKintosh included a third central figure (with one on each of the three panels now occupied by letters). This missing figure was of the Libyan Sybil, also from the Sistine Ceiling. However, it was dropped from the building's final design, possibly due to costs.

This Is My Glasgow

These sculptures on the Highland Fusilers Museum on Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow are the work of McGilvray and Ferris, and represent the Delphic Sybil (left) and the Prophet Isaiah (Right). While the building itself was designed by John Keppie, the facade, including these statues, may have been designed by his colleague Charles Rennie MacKintosh.

Pieces of my visit to MIS Experience exhibition “Michelangelo: The Master of the Sistine Chapel”, the largest #immersive #exhibition ever held in Brazil on the Sistine Chapel and #Michelangelo frescoes. The giant reproduction of the ceiling of the #SistineChapel provides the public with an unprecedented high technology animation and sound resources, promoting an immersion of visitors in the works of Michelangelo.
