Description:

The set includes two collectible $6 telecards issued by ACMI on March 25, 1995, each numbered 0999 out of a 2000 limited edition. Both cards feature detailed images of Michelangelo’s iconic frescoes from the Sistine Chapel ceiling in the Vatican, Italy, painted in the early 16th century as part of Italian Renaissance art.

The first card shows a portion of the famous fresco "The Creation of Adam," focusing on the muscular nude figure of Adam reclining on the ground, extending his hand toward the right. The fresco's intricate architectural framing and naturalistic background tones are visible, emphasizing the human anatomy and artistry characteristic of Michelangelo’s style.

The second card complements the set by depicting another segment of "The Creation of Adam," prominently featuring God surrounded by angels and cherubs, reaching out to touch Adam’s finger. The figures are portrayed with dynamic movement and strong anatomical detail, set against a rounded background area that contrasts with the surrounding fresco. Both cards highlight religious themes central to Michelangelo’s work in the Vatican chapels and are part of a fine arts collectible phone card series celebrating 16th-century Italian religious paintings.
