"description": "Florentine artist and author Giorgio Vasari venerated Michelangelo as the premier example of artistic genius and emulated the master in much of his work. He made this modello (a finished drawing for presentation to a patron) in preparation for a church altarpiece in Florence. It shows a finely muscled Christ appearing within a host of angels above a group of saints. Vasari\u2019s Christ imitates the pose and body type of Michelangelo\u2019s Christ in the Last Judgment fresco; he altered the pose, while suggesting his knowledge of the earlier composition.",
