Michelangelo, the Sistine Chapel, and the brainstem Department of Kinesiology and Applied Physiology Suk I, Tamargo RJ (2010) Concealed Neuroanatomy in Michelangelo's Separation of Light From Darkness in the Sistine Chapel. Neurosurgery 66: 851–861. Michelangelo ( ) was a master anatomist as well as an artistic genius. He dissected cadavers and developed a profound understanding of human anatomy. From 1508 to 1512, Michelangelo painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome. His Sistine Chapel frescoes are considered one of the monumental achievements of Renaissance art. Michelangelo. painted … frescoes along the longitudinal apex of the vault, … depicting scenes from the Book of Genesis. It is reported that Michelangelo concealed an image of the brain in [one] of these… panels, namely, the Creation of Adam. Here we present evidence that he concealed another neuronanatomic structure in the final panel of this series, the Separation of Light From Darkness, specifically a ventral view of the brainstem. The Separation of Light From Darkness is an important panel in the Sistine Chapel iconography because it depicts the beginning of Creation and is located directly above the altar. We propose that Michelangelo, a deeply religious man and an accomplished anatomist, intended to enhance the meaning of this iconographically critical panel and possibly document his anatomic accomplishments by concealing this sophisticated neuroanatomic rendering within the image of God.

C, the overlay showing the specific midbrain structures that correspond to the unusual features in God's neck as depicted by Michelangelo. Suk I, Tamargo RJ (2010) Neurosurgery 66: 851–861.

Department of Kinesiology and Applied Physiology Being a painter of genius, a master anatomist, and a deeply religious man, Michelangelo cleverly enhanced his depiction of God in the iconographically critical panels on the Sistine Chapel vault with concealed images of the brain and in this way celebrated not only the glory of God, but also that of His most magnificent creation.
