Great Museums

 

Famed for its spiral staircase, the Raphael Rooms and the exquisitely decorated Sistine Chapel, Vatican Museums wa founded by Pope Julius II in the 6th century. Located in the Vatican City of Rome, they are among the best museums in the world. However, under the patronage of Pope Julius II, Michelangelo painted the chapel ceiling between 1508 and 1512. And today the ceiling, and especially The Last Judgment, is widely believed to be Michelangelo’s crowning achievements in painting.
