In this meeting, we raise our eyes towards the sky to take in the world-famous Sistine Chapel--but not just as casual observers. Author Ross King gives us an intimate look at the drama and turmoil surrounding the creation of the beloved masterpeice in Michael Angelo and the Pope's Ceiling. When Pope Julius II (dubbed "the Warrior Pope" for his combative nature and unrelentting drive for power) commissioned Rome's most celebrated sculptor to adorn the Sistine Chapel in 1508, he had little notion of the conflict to come. Michelangelo had little painting experience but he did have a massive ego and a temper to boot, and over the course of the next four years he and the fiery Pope Julius engaged in multiple battles, pitting art against Papal power with sometimes explosive results. In revealing the passion and the politics that rocked Rome both inside and outside of the Chapel's walls, King shows us a very different side of the frescoes we always thought we knew. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/newburyport/book-club-for-art-lovers-italian-renaissance/100001982897319260 - **Event Categories**: Art, Entertainment, Meetups, Theatre, Workshops, fine-arts, literary-art, performances - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 33.85, max: 33.85, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Newburyport - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: Threadneedle Gallery Fine Art - **lat**: 42.8104486 - **long**: -70.87021159999999 - **full address**: Threadneedle Gallery Fine Art, 0 Threadneedle Alley, Newburyport, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Book Club for Art Lovers: Italian Renaissance - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/fc49adb9260e801ee43588d307a0e070d47e859a6d19af0ea4f1246d22af4669-rimg-w1200-h1600-dc795743-gmir.jpg?v=1770887304 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Book Club for Art Lovers: Italian Renaissance being held? - **A:** Book Club for Art Lovers: Italian Renaissance takes place on Wed, 08 Apr, 2026 at 06:30 pm to Wed, 08 Apr, 2026 at 08:30 pm at Threadneedle Gallery Fine Art, 0 Threadneedle Alley, Newburyport, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Book Club for Art Lovers: Italian Renaissance? - **A:** Tickets for Book Club for Art Lovers: Italian Renaissance are priced at USD 34 per person.
