Page 51: Chap. 12 Sec. 1 – The Renaissance!. The Italian Renaissance! I.Italian Renaissance: Word means “Rebirth” – number of people living in Italy between 1350

“I want you to decorate my chapel..”

• Pope Julius II believed Michelangelo could do anything and ordered him to decorate the ceiling of the chapel.

• “But I’m not a painter,” Michelangelo protested, “I’m a sculptor. I’ve hardly done anything with a brush and you want me to paint 2000 square feet on a curved ceiling!”

Page 52: Chap. 12 Sec. 1 – The Renaissance!. The Italian Renaissance! I.Italian Renaissance: Word means “Rebirth” – number of people living in Italy between 1350

• You’ll do a great job,” said Julius. “I’ll have my architect Bramante set up the scaffolding for you.”

• He was a very tough man, more like a military commander than a pope, and he didn’t want to hear objections. Once he actually struck Michelangelo with his staff for impertinence.

Page 53: Chap. 12 Sec. 1 – The Renaissance!. The Italian Renaissance! I.Italian Renaissance: Word means “Rebirth” – number of people living in Italy between 1350

• What Michelangelo then came up with was a vast painting of three hundred figures illustrating the pre-history of salvation—Man’s time on earth before the coming of Christ

• To paint on a wall old-time artists used a technique called fresco. They mixed sand and lime and spread the mix over the wall. Next they applied their colors but had to do it fast, while the wall was still wet or fresh.

• When it dried, the colors fused chemically with the lime and became permanent.The fresco technique is old and dates back at least to the Egyptians.
