The Last Judgement, 1535-1541 AD

• Pope Paul III asked Michelangelo to paint the altar wall.

• The Last Judgement depicts the second coming of Christ.

• This painting was a bitter dispute between Michelangelo and Cardinal Carafa over the nudity of the characters.

• The Pope’s own Master of Ceremonies, Biagioda Cesena, stated, “"it was mostly disgraceful that in so holy a place there should have been depicted all those nude figures, exposing themselves so shamefully, and that it was no place for a pope’s chapel but rather for the public bathrooms and bars!”

People say Michelangelo had such a difficult time painting the Last Judgment that he painted himself as St. John the Baptist.

You know what they say about paybacks?

• The bottom right corner of the painting shows Minos, the Greek judge of the Underworld, leading sinners to Hell.

• Michelangelo painted Biagioda Cesena as the first sinner going into Hell!!!

• He is depicted with donkey ears while his nudity is covered by a coiled snake.

• It is said that when Cesena complained to the Pope, Pope Paul III responded that his job title did not extend to hell, so the portrait would have to remain.

14th century on the Italian Peninsula people began to focus on humanistic ideas. Much of the culture of the ancient Greeks and Romans was found in numerous works.
