Episode 233 – Vasari's "Last Judgment" (Florence Cathedral)
The dome frescoes of Florence Cathedral cover nearly an acre of dome surface, making it the world's largest fresco. Begun by Giorgio Vasari in 1572 and completed by Federico Zuccari in 1579, the main subject of the fresco is the Last Judgment and incudes some strikingly graphic imagery in the Hell sections.
