Michelangelo, the Pope, and the Sistine Chapel: Fact vs. Myth

Michelangelo Buonarroti and Pope Julius II are two towering figures of the High Renaissance—one, a multi-talented artist revered for his sculptures, paintings, and architectural feats; the other, a fiery and ambitious pontiff bent on leaving a colossal mark on the Catholic Church’s visual and spiritual legacy.
