Discussion Topic: Virtual Michelangelo

As a non Artist critic I would say that I think that Michelangelo, Ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, is a very creative and descriptive painting; not in a sense that there is too much detail, but enough so that the viewing critic can understand the events and complexity of the fresco painting. His shading and description of the human body is remarkable, the best i have seen thus far. He brings back the artistry from Greek painting of the “Ideal man”. I think this fresco painting is still important for contemporary  society because it portrays the timeline of the birth of Adam and Eve and it does so in that of a manner where the viewer is able to understand it in a way that they will accept it.
