Last Judgment

1541: Cappella Sistina, Vatican

Among the Apostles who gather around Christ is the figure of St. Bartholomew, the saint who was flayed alive because of his faith. The empty skin bears the distorted face of Michelangelo, an anguished expression of the artist's endless spiritual and artistic struggles.
