Most of the background is a beautiful blue color. Michelangelo used a semi precious stone, Lapus Lazuli, to get that specific color. He crushed the stones into a powder which became the pigment for that color. To see it in person is overwhelming, it really is a heavenly blue.

How is the Sistine Chapel different from other churches?
The Sistine Chapel ceiling and one wall were painted by Michelangelo. His frescoes have become popular modern prints, the unbelievably beautiful touching of hands or giving life. It is the only chapel that took so many years to complete, and restored about 6 years ago or so, and interestingly enough, when the grime was removed, one of the angels who was sent into hell had serpents wrapped around his torso and finally holding on for dear life to his private part. I found this interesting that the artist would give that sort of punishment, especially when the Pope had problems with the nudity in the beginning of the chapel painting. The Sistine Chapel is also different from other churches because it is where the Cardinals have always met to select a new Pope. The Chapel is also located in St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican, Rome, Italy.
