The '''[[Wikipedia:Sistine Chapel|Sistine Chapel]]''' (Latin: '''''Sacellum Sixtinum'''''; Italian: '''''Cappella Sistina''''') is a famous chapel located in [[wikipedia:Vatican City|Vatican City]]. It is one of three landmarks in Rome [[Luigi]] has to visit in ''[[Mario is Missing!]]''. The Sistine Chapel is well-known for its ceiling, a huge painting by Italian painter [[wikipedia:Michelangelo|Michelangelo]]. During the events of the game, the ceiling is stolen by [[Koopa Troopa]]s, and the chapel is closed until Luigi returns it, for which he is rewarded $900. From the Roman police officer, the player learns that "the Pope went through the roof" when the ceiling turned out missing. In the PC version, however, the Koopas instead steal Michelangelo's paintbrush. | The '''[[Wikipedia:Sistine Chapel|Sistine Chapel]]''' (Latin: '''''Sacellum Sixtinum'''''; Italian: '''''Cappella Sistina''''') is a famous chapel located in [[wikipedia:Vatican City|Vatican City]].

''In 1508 Pope Julius II commissioned the artist, Michelangelo, to decorate the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican. He wasn't used to painting on plaster. It took Michelangelo over 4 years to finish painting the 900-square-meter ceiling. Much of the painting had to be done in an uncomfortable position. The artist was either lying on wooden scaffolds or looking straight up. The Chapel's ceiling is breathtakingly beautiful. It is considered Michelangelo's masterpiece.'' | ''In 1508 Pope Julius II commissioned the artist, Michelangelo, to decorate the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican.
