Vintage Creation of Adam God's hand Michelangelo Tissue Paper

A fragment from the picture "Creation of Adam" the hand of God and Adam seeking to meet each other. “The Creation of Adam” is one of the most outstanding compositions of the Sistine Chapel.The whole composition is concentrated on a gesture of two hands. The hand of God gives an impulse, and the hand of Adam receives it, giving the whole body vital energy. By the fact that their hands do not touch, Michelangelo emphasized the impossibility of combining the divine and the human. In the image of God, as conceived by the artist, not a miraculous beginning prevails, but a gigantic creative energy. In the image of Adam, Michelangelo celebrates the strength and beauty of the human body. In fact, it is not the creation of man itself that appears before us, but the moment at which he receives his soul, the passionate search for the divine, the thirst for knowledge.
