A decade after its completion, Michelangelo's "The Last Judgment" in the Sistine Chapel faced criticism for its nudity and the portrayal of figures, which some deemed inappropriate for a sacred space. In response to the backlash, Pope Clement VIII commissioned artist Daniele da Volterra to cover some of the nude figures with drapery, earning him the nickname "Il Braghettone." Despite this controversy, the fresco continued to be admired for its artistic mastery and complexity, solidifying its place in art history. Over time, restoration efforts have helped preserve its original vibrancy and detail.
