God the Father
God the Father appears in several Genesis scenes in Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling, most famously "The Creation of Adam". God the Father is depicted as a powerful figure, floating in the clouds in "Titian's Assumption of the Virgin" (see gallery below) in the Frari of Venice, long admired as a masterpiece of High Renaissance art. The Church of the Gesù in Rome includes a number of 16th-century depictions of God the Father. In some of these paintings the Trinity is still alluded to in terms of three angels, but Giovanni Battista Fiammeri also depicted God the Father riding on a cloud, above the scenes.
