Michelangelo’s First Type Of Scaffolding | Scaffolding Direct London

Michelangelo is well known to be one of the most prolific painters and sculptors in our history, and key figure of the High Renaissance.

His most renowned work is undoubtedly the fresco on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, a masterpiece that showcases his unparalleled skill.

Michelangelo‘s renowned masterpiece for the Pope at the Vatican City was created using a special type of scaffolding. This innovative platform gantry was made from wooden platforms held up by brackets inserted into the chapel walls, allowing Michelangelo to reach the high ceiling and complete the painting in stages, while the scaffolding moved across the chapel.

The result is a busy yet beautifully balanced composition, depicting a range of religious iconography rendered in Michelangelo‘s characteristic style and making it one of the most important and precious masterpieces in the world.

Our scaffolding structures are constructed with the highest quality industry standard materials and are routinely checked for any defects or strength issues, making us No. 1 in the London area.
