At the heart of the Vatican lies St Peter’s Square, an open space designed by Bernini in the 17th century, which leads to the nerve centre of the papal city: St Peter’s Basilica.

What do the frescoes in the Sistine Chapel mean?

What do the frescoes in the Sistine Chapel mean?

The German writer Goethe wrote: “Without having seen the Sistine Chapel, one cannot form a proper idea of what human beings are capable of achieving.” And how right he was. This room, one of the world’s most famous artistic spaces, is a sublime aesthetic experience that stands out during a tour of the Vatican Museums. And it is impossible to think of the Sistine Chapel without considering the figure of Michelangelo Buonarroti. He himself said that “perfection is no small thing, but it is made up of small things”; a perfection he sought in his masterpiece through his various frescoes. Read on to find out more about the works of art that adorn the Sistine Chapel.
