This episode analyzes Michelangelo's visionary architectural design for the vestibule - better known as the "Ricetto" – of the Laurentian Library. Dominated by the famous staircase which Michelangelo claimed appeared to him in a dream, the space perfectly expresses Michelangelo's radical new vision for Renaissance architecture.
