MICHELANGELO Buonarroti: Asa – Jehoshaphat – Joram

🖼 Asa – Jehoshaphat – Joram, 1511-12
Fresco
215 × 430 cm
Vatican, Italy

Three robed figures stand in austere profiles, rendered in fresco with precise linear detail and minimal modeling. Part of Michelangelo's genealogical cycle in the Sistine Chapel, these ancestral kings of Judah exemplify his integration of biblical narrative with architectural design.
