Should I visit the Michelangelo exhibition at The British Museum?

This video explores the Michelangelo exhibition at The British Museum. Focusing on his Last Decades, the British Museum creatively curates the show to bring Michelangelo and his work alive by combing drawings, letters and projections of some of his most important later work to get an intimate sense of the artistic great as he confronts mortality.

Reminds me of my first trip to Rome a few years back, good times.

[@artgalleryexplorer]

Oh yes - fantastic. I assume you immersed yourself in the Sistine Chapel?

Which is supposed to be Jesus, without the beard?

[@artgalleryexplorer]

In the thumbnail or in the exhibition?

[@LyndaE79]

@@artgalleryexplorer I’m unsure. I was just wanting to see what the artists perception of what Jesus looked like.

@@LyndaE79 Michelangelo often portrays without a beard. In the last Judgment fresco, Jesus does not have a beard.
