1511 Fresco, 400 x 380 cm Cappella Sistina, Vatican Primordial, totally detached, her eyes focused on things outside this world, and she herself almost a cave of mystery - such is the Persica of the Sistine Chapel. Something of Leonardo's chiaroscuro has crept into her composition. She is a presence still more powerful and secretive, magical and abstracted than the Cumaean Sibyl. Artist: MICHELANGELO Buonarroti Title: The Persian Sibyl Date: 1501-1550 Italian , painting : religious
