Michelangelo’s Blueprints for the Sistine Chapel Ceiling

YouTube description:

Famously, Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

Less famously, Michelangelo hated the Sistine Chapel ceiling — or at least the process of painting it.

And we're fairly certain that at the end of the four-year process he swore he'd never do anything like it again.

But while he was a hugely successful artist, Michelangelo was very bad at turning down work he didn't want to do.

Especially when he was asked to do it by the Pope.
