The Creation of the Sun Moon and Planets (sometimes The Creation of the Sun Moon and Plants or The Creation of the Sun and the Moon) is one of the frescoes from Michelangelo’s nine Book of Genesis scenes on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. It is the second scene in the chronological sequence on the ceiling depicting the third and fourth day of the Creation narrative. On the left God is depicted from behind extending his arm towards a bush alluding to the plant world.
