Later Years
In 1534 Michelangelo started another painting on the side of a wall, the Last Judgment, for the Sistine Chapel. He spent most of the rest of his life working on this large painting and writing poetry. He also designed the dome of Saint Peter's Basilica and the Capitoline Square in Rome. He died in Rome on February 18, 1564.
