Masterpiece Monday: The Risen Christ by Michelangelo

---

The Risen Christ, carved by Michelangelo, stands in the church Santa Maria Sopra Minerva, which is behind the Pantheon. It is amazing that you can see such a work by Michelangelo himself away from the crowds. The church has been renovated, so now is a great time to visit!

• It doesn't really call to me.
