Måleriet Identifieringen :: 62922 The Cumaean Sibyl
1510 Fresco, 375 x 380 cm Cappella Sistina, Vatican The Cumaean Sibyl oppresses by the sheer weight of her bulk and a commanding ugliness. With the open folio bound in green and her two genii gazing at its pages over her shoulders she has become one of the Fates, a towering shape with human features. Whenever Sibyls are mentioned, the Cumaea at once comes to mind. In the art of Michelangelo and other painters her powerful presence overshadows every other Sibyl, even her younger and more beautiful sisters, such as the Delphica. Artist: MICHELANGELO Buonarroti Title: The Cumaean Sibyl Date: 1501-1550 Italian , painting : religious

Måleriet Identifieringen :: 62923 he Persian Sibyl
1511 Fresco, 400 x 380 cm Cappella Sistina, Vatican Primordial, totally detached, her eyes focused on things outside this world, and she herself almost a cave of mystery - such is the Persica of the Sistine Chapel. Something of Leonardo's chiaroscuro has crept into her composition. She is a presence still more powerful and secretive, magical and abstracted than the Cumaean Sibyl. Artist: MICHELANGELO Buonarroti Title: The Persian Sibyl Date: 1501-1550 Italian , painting : religious

Måleriet Identifieringen :: 62924 Ignudo
Fresco Cappella Sistina, Vatican The picture shows the Ignudo at the lower left corner of the Separation of the Earth from the Waters (above the Persian Sibyl). The poses of the pairs of ignudi become gradually more dynamic and agitated. The two above the Persian Sibyl (at the left) bend backward in opposite directions, while one of those above the prophet Daniel (at right) bends forward, casting an apprehensive glance at the viewer, and the other raises his arm in a movement reminiscent of Hellenistic sculptures of dancing fauns. Artist: MICHELANGELO Buonarroti Title: Ignudo Date: 1501-1550 Italian , painting : religious
