Answer:

1. The Sistine Chapel, or Cappella Sistina in Italian, is named after Sixtus IV, the pope who commissioned it in the 1470s.

2. Whoever said Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel’s ceiling on his back?

Contrary to popular belief, Michelangelo did not paint on his back. He and his assistants actually painted standing upright on wooden platforms Michelangelo himself had devised.

3.Michelangelo wanted nothing to do with the Sistine Chapel’s ceiling

In 1508, Pope Julius II, the nephew of Sixtus IV, decided to partly alter the decoration of the Sistine Chapel and asked Michelangelo, who was busy working on a marble tomb the pope himself had commissioned, to decorate the ceiling.

4. (Too much) nudity in the Sistine Chapel

Many years after completing the ceiling frescoes, Michelangelo returned to the Sistine Chapel to paint The Last Judgment on the end altar wall.

5. New popes have been elected in the Sistine Chapel since 1492 (as the sole venue only since 1870).
