the sistine chapel ceiling (), painted by michelangelo between 1508 and 1512, is a cornerstone work of high renaissance art. the ceiling is that of the sistine chapel, the large papal chapel built within the vatican between 1477 and 1480 by pope sixtus iv, for whom the chapel is named. it was painted at the commission of pope julius ii. the chapel is the location for papal conclaves and many other important services.
