MICHELANGELO Buonarroti: Ignudo

🖼 Ignudo, 1511
Fresco
Vatican, Italy

Muscular male nudes frame the Sistine ceiling in dynamic poses, rendered with anatomical precision and spiral contrapposto. Michelangelo's ignudi showcase Renaissance mastery of the human form and influenced centuries of artistic study of male musculature and movement.
