Overview

All the world envies us this artistic treasure, especially the impressive Sistine Chapel and its frescoes, depicting the Last Judgement and the creation of Adam.

This unmissable tour starts from the heart of the Christian Religion as well as residence of the Pope, St. Peter Square. This enormous architectonic work surrounded by its colonnade composed of 284 columns and 88 pillars, provides an impressive visual impact that is worth a trip to Rome. St. Peter's Basilica is not included in this tour.

Sistine Chapel

The Sistine Chapel takes its name from Pope Sixtus IV della Rovere (pontiff from 1471 to 1484) who had the old Cappella Magna restored between 1477 and 1480. The 15th century decoration of the walls includes: the false drapes, the Stories of Moses (south and entrance walls) and of Christ (north and entrance walls) and the portraits of the Popes (north and south and entrance walls). It was executed by a team of painters made up initially of Pietro Perugino, Sandro Botticelli, Domenico Ghirlandaio and Cosimo Rosselli, assisted by their respective shops and by some closer assistants among whom Biagio di Antonio, Bartolomeo della Gatta and Luca Signorelli stand out. On the Ceiling Pier Matteo d'Amelia painted a starry sky. The work on the frescoes began in 1481 and was concluded in 1482. This is also the date of the following works in marble: the screen, the choir stalls (where the choristers took their places), and the pontifical coat of arms over the entrance door.
