Description
Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel: The Exhibition showcases the awe and wonder of arguably one of mankind’s greatest artistic achievements, while allowing its visitors to experience this art from an up-close, life-size, and never-before-seen perspective.

Brought to life using a special printing technique that emulates the look and feel of the original paintings, visitors are given a chance to engage with the artwork in ways that were never before possible: seeing every detail, every brushstroke, and every color of the artist’s 34 frescoes. Each image is accompanied by informative signage, and audio guides are available to rent for an even more in-depth experience. This globally successful exhibition is an innovative and unique interpretation of Michelangelo’s timeless masterpiece. Whether visitors have already been to the Sistine Chapel or not, everyone can admire the artwork up close, at their own pace, and with the ability to capture photographic memories of this iconic work.
- Very beautifully done and informative!
- Excellent! A must see exhibit. Very well done.
- I've visited the Sistine Chapel twice in Rome and have been awed by the paintings. This time I could see much more detail and you had a recorder giving me more info than I remember from Rome. However, one doesn't get the awe with the exhibit that one gets in Rome
- Loved It!! It was awesome. It's a MUST see.
- Amazing
- Thank you for bringing this on tour. It's a great lead up to my European vacation that will start at the end of the year.
- I loved the art, up close and detailed.
- AMAZING!!! When will the exhibit leave? Several of my family members want to see it after I raved about it.
- The video in the side room was excellent and well put together. Grabbed our attention. Surprised the screen was so small. Enjoyed seeing life sized depictions of the Sistine Chapel. The audio that went with each panel was excellent. Afterwards we decided to enjoy a glass of wine and light snack and discuss our experience. Shocked they served Barefoot Wine, barely drinkable. No Italian wine???
- The hostesses were all very nice, polite and knowledgeable about the exhibit. The limited admissions meant the pictures were viewable by all with great explanations both written and on audio. Michelangelo's works are wonderful, the colors are exquisite, even my 11 tear old granddaughter was impressed.
- Beautiful pictures but didn’t care for the audio narration. Too campy. I would have liked more in depth information about the subjects that were overlooked in the paintings.
- The exhibit hall had a strong odor of glue. We learned a lot about the artist & the stories depicted.
- it was great, quite impressive.
- Beautiful experience
- I think the main exhibit could have been arranged better. I thought I would be walking under the paintings as if there…
