Sistine Chapel Exhibition Toronto

It was pretty good. I went to Rome and saw it in person. It's definitely more impressive in the actual Sistine Chapel, but it was really cool to see the paintings up close and see the intricate details. The app has an audio tour and has extra information, but all the displays have some information beside it too.

We went as we missed the Sistine Chapel when we went to Rome. We liked the audio for all the portraits. I wouldn’t recommend eating at the restaurant/cafe there as there’s a 20% service charge automatically applied and they still expect you to pay a gratuity on top of it, it made a meal way over priced for mediocre food.The exhibit is fine but anything else they offered wasn’t worth it.

It was just very basic, nothing extraordinary. No one was there.

Absolutely stunning exhibit. If you are an art lover and especially enjoy Renaissance art, this exhibit is highly enjoyable. You get an up close and personal look at all the details of the paintings in the Sistine Chapel without going to Italy. You won’t even get as a close as look in Italy than this exhibit which displays magnified pictures of the art!I spent about 1 hour there and there are benches in front of iconic paintings to observe and absorb. I went around 10am at opening and it was peaceful and quiet. It was very meditative and calming throughout the whole exhibit. I recommend watching the 10 minute introductory video to give you a background about Michaelangelo and his work involved with the chapel.Don’t forget to sit in front of the Creation of Adam painting. So beautiful!
