Galileo, the Moon, and the Visual Arts
5/6/2009
Galileo was a skilled draftsman, a respected critic of painting, and a member of the Florentine art academy. His observations of the Moon led to an interesting conjunction of art, science, and religion. Shortly after the publication of the Sidereus Nuncius, Galileo´s friend, Lodovico Cigoli, painted the Moon in the Pope´s chapel in the church of S. Maria Maggiore in Rome as Galileo described it: rough and dense rather than smooth and translucent, as it was usually painted.
