Michelangelo and That Ceiling
The Last JudgementMichelangelo rather famously despised painting the Sistine Chapel.
It took him four years to complete (1508 to 1512) and nearly broke his spirit in the process. “I am not in the right place,” he wrote in the last line of a sonnet to his friend Giovanni da Pistoia after a year of work. “I am not a painter.”
Many of those who have viewed that ceiling or other of his paintings would disagree. What he endured to complete it took a lot out of him. Michelangelo is said to have suffered from an enlarged thyroid, cramped thighs, a tight chest, and a knotted spine while creating this revered masterpiece.
In that same poem, he described the project as “torture” and noted, “My brush / above me all the time, dribbles paint / so my face makes a fine floor for droppings!”
He had created a scaffolding system so he could paint the ceiling while standing. That helped, but didn’t take away what he considered to be torture.
The Sistine Chapel is more than 5,000 square feet. He realized that it was much more than he expected, and he considered himself to be a sculptor above all else.
And yet, he also painted The Last Judgement, which was an addition to the Sistine Chapel that Michelangelo began working on a quarter-century later. This painting depicts the second coming of Christ and God’s final judgment of all humanity. Pope Paul III charged Michelangelo with repainting the chapel’s altar wall with this scene.

It’s also believed that Michelangelo included a self-portrait in the guise of St. Bartholomew, a martyred saint who was flayed (skinned alive). I don’t see it, but it is said that Michelangelo is portrayed as Bartholomew’s skin, which the saint holds in his left hand as he ascends to heaven. (see below) It has been interpreted as him comparing his own agony to that of a martyr, though some critics say he just wanted a self-portrait as a personal flourish.
Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni was born in 1475. By the turn of the 16th century, he was already an acclaimed artist, having achieved a significant amount of fame through important church commissions
Michelangelo is, above all, one of the greatest sculptors in Western art. Unlike his relatively small number of paintings, his sculptures are numerous and foundational.
His most important and well-known works include the Pietà located in St. Peter’s Basilica, which shows the Virgin Mary holding the dead Christ. It’s remarkable for its serenity, balance, and incredibly polished marble surface. Michelangelo was only in his early 20s when he finished it.
David is perhaps his most famous sculpture, housed in the Galleria dell’Accademia. Unlike earlier versions, David is shown before battle, tense and alert. It embodies Renaissance ideals of human beauty and strength.
He also sculpted Moses for the tomb of Pope Julius II, now in San Pietro in Vincoli.
His Dying Slave and Rebellious Slave depicts these figures so that they seem to struggle to free themselves from the stone. It’s an example of Michelangelo’s idea that figures are “trapped” within marble. He said of one sculpture, “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.”In the Medici Chapel at San Lorenzo, he did four sculptures depicting Night, Day, Dawn, and Dusk.

Come non pensare in questo Sabato Santo, che tutti dovremmo incontrare un padre Bobby nella vita, che crede nelle nostri talenti e vuole che diventiamo come #Michelangelo. Un padre Bobby che dichiara il falso in un processo che non si sarebbe mai dovuto tenere, rischiando in prima persona per i suoi ragazzi, sebbene sapesse la fine che la cattiveria del mondo aveva già scritto per loro. -

🎨🗿 We often see #Michelangelo as a mythic figure, but his contemporaries saw an "intolerable" and brooding man who lived an austere life. His abrasive personality and the concept of "non-finito" (the unfinished) defined his #art.

Hoy se activaba #Michelangelo, el primer #virus informático de difusión masiva.
Se trataba de un infector de sector de arranque del tipo "bomba de tiempo lógica". Su vector infeccioso eran los #diskettes de 5 1/4 pulgadas y 360 Kilobytes de capacidad. La cabeza de guerra prevista revistaba el reloj de tiempo real del equipo toda vez que se le daba arranque. Estaba capacitado para atacar un disco fijo del equipo, sobreescribiendo su Tabla Principal de Arranque y volviéndola normalmente inoperable.
De creación anónima y encontrado por primera vez en Australia en 1991, se volvió famoso el año siguiente afectando centenares de equipos compatibles con IBM PC. -

Een schets van een voet die Michelangelo ruim vijfhonderd jaar geleden maakte, is voor een recordbedrag van 27,2 miljoen dollar (ruim 23 miljoen euro) verkocht. Het veilinghuis in New York dat de tekening verkocht, had niet verwacht dat het werk, dat per toeval ontdekt werd, zoveel op zou leveren.

TMNT Mutant Melee with Tommy Proffitt (Distant Echoes, Lee Carvallo’s Podding Challenge)
Dust off your cowabunga collection and prepare your fists for some serious turtle-powered mayhem, because this week on Play Comics we’re diving shell-first into TMNT: Mutant Melee, the 2005 arena-based fighting bonanza that took the 2003 animated series and asked the most important question: what if we just got all the turtles, their friends, AND their enemies into one room and let them beat the absolute snot out of each other? Developed by Konami for PS2, Xbox, GameCube, and PC, this isn’t your typical one-on-one fighter—it’s more like if Smash Bros and Power Stone had a shell-covered baby and that baby knew all of Splinter’s teachings.
Joining us for this body-slamming brawl is the incomparable Tommy Proffitt from Distant Echoes and Lee Carvallo’s Podding Challenge, a podcast wizard who understands the intricate art of dissecting character-based chaos and canon coherence like few others can. Plus being able to bring his signature blend of gaming nostalgia and comedic precision to help us determine if this colorful chaos simulator managed to capture the spirit of its source material or if it swung its nunchucks at empty air.
Together, we’ll navigate the treacherous waters of Last Man Standing mode, contemplate why anyone thought having 22 playable characters was a good idea, and investigate whether the game’s holiday-themed cosmetics (seriously—set the date to December 25th and watch the turtles rock Santa hats) are feature or bug.
Learn such things as:
- What does it say about a game when its best feature might legitimately be the ability to unlock the original arcade game inside it?
- What’s the difference between a party fighter and a fighting game that doesn’t know what it wants to be?
- Can the 2003 cartoon’s tone can survive being translated into “everyone fights everyone all the time?
- And so much more!
