Ms. Mod in Italy

Absolutely! It was simply amazing and the detail was incredible. Well worth the wait to get to see it even with having bought tickets in advance.

Oh my, yes, the detail. What an incredible memory for you.

I was thinking of the veins in his hands and feet and even up in the crook of his elbow. Now what might you have been thinking of, hmmmm?

Ha! I've loved Michelangelo since I was kid, painter sculptor both. The detail is amazing. Someone once asked him how he sculpted The David. He answered, "I took a piece of marble and chipped away everything that wasn't David."

His and Leonardo da Vinci's accomplishments are awe inspiring. I think I may still have a crick in my neck from trying to take everything in at the Sistine Chapel.

OMG, Sistine Chapel, pure unadulterated human genius gone wild. I'm happy you've seen it in person.

The closest I'll get to either wonderful sight is having read Irving Stone's The Agony and the Ecstacy. Did you see the Pieta in the chapel? Did they mention the chapel is were the cardinals hold their voting sessions? Can you imagine having to be locked up in such a place?

I am so glad you have so many wonderful memories.

ALL of the details, Ms. Mod, all of the details, the veins and the crook and the tilt of the David's head. He was certainly blessed with an incredible talent.

The movie based on the book is really good, too. "Will there be an end?", Rex Harrison keeps saying.
