X-Ray 2023: Creation of Adam

On the heels of our recent X-ray adventure in Egypt, we visit
Rome, one of the centres of art in Italy for the 3rd edition of the
series. The depicted image of almost touching hands derives
from a renowned ceiling fresco by the Italian painter Michelangelo
in the Sistine Chapel in Rome. The divine breath of life
leaps from God’s finger to the one of a human. This famous
gesture represents the Creation of Adam – the first man. Next
to the hands of God and his divine creation, a part of another
monumental work by Michelangelo – The Last Judgement – is
revealed.
