'''Drunkenness of Noah''' is a fresco painted by the renowned Italian High Renaissance artist Michelangelo Buonarroti in 1509. It is one of the series of frescoes painted by Michelangelo on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican, Rome. This particular fresco illustrates the biblical episode of Noah's inebriation following the Great Flood, as described in the Book of Genesis (Genesis 9:20-27).

The artwork is part of a larger narrative scheme on the Sistine Chapel ceiling, which includes nine central panels depicting stories from the Book of Genesis. ''Drunkenness of Noah'' is the third scene in this sequence, following the panels of the ''Separation of Light from Darkness'' and the ''Creation of the Sun, Moon, and Plants''. The fresco is located in the southernmost section of the ceiling, nearest to the altar.

In the ''Drunkenness of Noah'', Michelangelo captures the moment after Noah has become intoxicated from the wine produced from his vineyard, the first to be planted after the floodwaters receded. Noah is depicted lying naked and asleep inside his tent, while his three sons respond to his state of undress in different ways, reflecting their respective characters as described in the biblical narrative. Shem and Japheth, the two elder sons, are shown respectfully covering their father with a garment, turning their faces away to avoid looking at him directly. In contrast, Ham, the youngest son, is portrayed as mocking his father's vulnerability.

Michelangelo's interpretation of this scene is notable for its humanistic approach, emphasizing the emotional and moral dimensions of the story. The fresco is characterized by its dynamic composition, the powerful rendering of the human form, and the expressive use of color and light, which would come to influence the development of Western art.

The ''Drunkenness of Noah'' is not only a reflection of Michelangelo's artistic genius but also serves as a theological and moral commentary, inviting viewers to contemplate themes of sin, shame, respect, and the complexities of human nature. As part of the Sistine Chapel ceiling, this fresco contributes to one of the greatest masterpieces of the Renaissance and remains an object of admiration and study for art historians, scholars, and visitors from around the world.
