Hello SCAD Art History students! This is Terry Johnson here
to give you some art history knowledge and know-how for your viewing and
reading pleasure. So as you all know are history is important to a lot of the
art that we do today. For Instance Charlton Heston brings his booming
"Moses" voice to the story of Michelangelo. Although you see Heston
on his back, painting the Sistine ceiling, we now know that Michelangelo
painted while standing. Still, a great movie. Rex Harrison (Dr. Doolittle, the
ORIGINAL one) plays Michelangelo's tempermental match, Pope Julius II. Look for
the scene where Michelangelo receives his inspiration for the Creation of Adam
section of the ceiling.
