Original information
[edit]DescriptionAbraham - Isaac - Jacob - Judah by Michelangelo Buonarroti.jpg | Abraham - Isaac - Jacob - Judah by Michelangelo Buonarroti, as engraved by Adamo Ghisi. Engraving of the original (produced 1511-12, destroyed 1534-41). Michelangelo produced the original fresco in the Sistine Chapel between 1511 and 1512. He destroyed it when he extended the painting of the Last Judgment to the whole wall between 1534 and 1541. While it existed, Adamo Ghisi (Italian engraver, 1530-1585) AKA Adamo Scultori (Mantovano) made an engraving and a drawing of it. This is a scan of the engraving. Description from Abraham - Isaac - Jacob - Judah by MICHELANGELO Buonarroti on Web Gallery of Art (WGA): "In the lunettes situated at the top of the altar wall, Michelangelo painted the first two groups of ancestors of Christ according to the sequence of the Gospel of St Matthew: Abraham-Isaac-Jacob-Judah and Perez-Hezron-Ram. The two frescoes were destroyed when the artist decided to extend the painting of the Last Judgment to the whole wall. However, they are shown in two drawings reproducing the whole vault (now in the collections of Windsor castle and the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford) and in two engravings by Adamo Ghisi." | ||||||
