Virtual Sistine Chapel

Date
15 March 2012

You may have heard of The Sistine Chapel because it is mentioned in the excellent 2005 Will Smith rom-com Hitch but seeing it in the flesh is something else. Maybe though you don’t have the time, the money or the inclination to go to Italy – panic not, the internet is here to help (as always). This virtual tour of Michelangelo’s masterpiece is a brilliant use of this kind of technology and it allows you to soak in the genius without having to peer round EVERY sightseer in Rome.
