It is well-known that Michelangelo was an exceptional artist, architect and sculptor. However, not many people know that he was also an expert anatomist, who used to dissect corpses with the intention of producing anatomical sketches!

There are reasons to believe that Michelangelo left such anatomical illustrations behind in many of his works. The Creation of Adam, one of his most iconic works in the Sistine Chapel, is one such example.

Микеланджело — истинный гений, владевший не только искусством, но и анатомией. Его талант простирался далеко за пределы живописи и скульптуры. Великое наследие великого мастера остается вдохновением для многих до сих пор.
