I am a huge fan of Michelangelo and I have the (copy) painting "The Creation of Adam." I have been to the Sistine Chapel and seen the painting on the ceiling. Someone told me that Leonardo da Vinci had some strong ties or influence on Michelangelo concerning this painting. I always thought that the painting was totally Michelangelo and inspired by someone or something else besides Leonardo. I would like to know if this is true and any other information on their influence on each other. Thank you, Ernie
