About Michelangelo and Study for Adam (1511)

Michelangelo (1475–1564) made this drawing in 1511 as he prepared the Creation of Adam, the scene in which God reaches out to give life to the first man. It is one of very few surviving studies for that celebrated fresco. It is drawn in red chalk and measures about 19 x 26 cm. It is in the British Museum in London.
