They say it\u2019s hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven, but he might have more luck getting his hands on this heavenly book: \u201cThe Sistine Chapel<\/a>,\u201d a three-volume limited edition collectors series<\/a> of 600 numbered sets. Basically, it\u2019s the Sistine Chapel in book form, with masterpieces by Michelangelo, Botticelli, Perugino, and other Renaissance artists presented in the pages with 99 percent color authenticity.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The price: a mere $22,000 \u2014 it\u2019s a work of art in its own right.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The book, which is 24 by 17 inches and a whopping 822 pages total (each volume weighs 25 pounds), is the result of a five-year collaboration between Callaway Arts & Entertainment, the Vatican art museums and Italian art publisher Script<\/a>a Maneant.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The publication of this book is a big deal; the Vatican museums have never before authorized a publication of its kind, and the work will never be reprinted.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The creation of the book is its own dramatic story. Over the course of 67 consecutive nights, the Sistine Chapel was closed to the public while a team of photographers took more than 270,000 digital images, using a 33-foot-tall scaffold and rig to capture every inch of the chapel.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cNow more than ever, when travel<\/a> is limited and the immense amount of digital imagery fatigues the eye, these magnificent volumes can serve as a tonic for the soul,\u201d says art historian and art dealer Robert Simon, who was responsible for discovering Leonardo da Vinci\u2019s lost work \u201cSalvator Mundi\u201d in 2005. \u201cWhether seen as a triumph of photography, a monument of scholarship, or a luxurious asset, this is a work to covet and, for the fortunate, to own.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
