DESCRIPTION:  This masterpiece by Michelangelo depicts God reaching out to Adam from part of the famous painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel.  Michelangelo was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect and poet. He was also one of the founders of the High Renaissance and one of the principal exponents of Mannerism. Born at Caprese, the son of the local magistrate, his family returned to Florence soon after his birth. Amazingly, Michelangelo's desire to become an artist was initially opposed by his father, as to be a practicing artist was then considered beneath the station of a member of the gentry.
