Panoramic Sistine Chapel

The official Vatican website has a panoramic view of the Sistine Chapel. If you don't have the opportunity to go and visit it yourself, this could be your best chance to get up close and personal with Michelangelo's ceiling and the works of other Renaissance artists. Take your virtual tour with or without music. Link -via Dark Roasted Blend

This is really gorgeous, and the music is awesome. Thanks for posting it, I will be looking at it often!

I don't remember the big copyright symbol on the floor when I was there, but there were a lot of people.

And I thought they had uncovered most of the painted-over wangs by now.

Nothing beats going there yourself. And even though they tell you not to take pics (lest they won't be able to sell their overpriced coffee table book and postcards), no one ever listens and shoots anyway. Even a stone-cold skeptic like myself was moved by the beauty of the ceiling.
