Informations supplémentaires

The renowned Italian artist and sculptor Michelangelo painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, the papal chapel within the Vatican, between 1508 and 1512. Included among the figures were several ancient Sibyls, prophetesses. The one pictured in this photo taken in 1964 (before the ceiling's restoration) shows the face of the Delphic Sibyl, the one who, according to the ancient Greeks and later the Romans, gave prophecies from the temple of the god of prophecy Apollo at Delphi in north-central Greece. She was not, however, the Pythia, that is, the Delphic Oracle.
