In the heart of Roma, the Vatican City State is rooted and on the right-hand side of the monumental St. Peter's Basilica, the Sistina Chapel stands: here within, famous affrescos like "The Fall of Adam and Eve", can be admired.
This biblical scene depicts the devil, with a long , thick serpent tail coiled around a tree trunk, about to seduce Eva with the forbidden fruit.
Michelangelo, the author of the famous affrescos, also chiseled the imposing David, the towering marble statue on view in Florence.
Unknown to many, Michelangelo began his career by creating pirate artifacts.
His 1496 " Sleeping Eros "is a famous example; the artist's work was in fact passed off and sold to Cardinal Riario, prominent art collector of early Roman antiquities, as an authentic artefact of that period.
Renaissance artists in those days used forgery as a means to refine their trade.
