The Persian Sybil is one of the twelve prophetic figures painted by Michelangelo on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City. Completed between 1508 and 1512, the Sistine Chapel ceiling is one of the most renowned masterpieces of the High Renaissance, and the inclusion of the Persian Sybil reflects Michelangelo's integration of classical mythology with Christian theology.

The Persian Sybil, like the other sibyls depicted on the ceiling, was believed in ancient times to be a prophetess who foretold the coming of Christ. Michelangelo's depiction of the Persian Sybil is characterized by her dignified and contemplative expression, embodying a sense of wisdom and foresight. She is often shown holding a scroll, which symbolizes the ancient prophecies she is believed to have made.

Michelangelo's portrayal of the Persian Sybil is notable for its intricate detail and the artist's masterful use of color and light. The figure is draped in flowing robes that exhibit Michelangelo's exceptional skill in rendering the human form and fabric. The Persian Sybil's pose, with her head turned and eyes gazing into the distance, evokes a sense of introspection and mystery, aligning with the enigmatic nature of sibylline prophecies.

The inclusion of the Persian Sybil in the Sistine Chapel ceiling underscores the Renaissance interest in classical antiquity and the synthesis of pagan and Christian traditions. Michelangelo's work on the ceiling, including the Persian Sybil, has been celebrated for its artistic innovation, technical brilliance, and profound impact on the course of Western art.

The Persian Sybil, along with the other sibyls and prophets, forms a crucial part of the iconographic program of the Sistine Chapel ceiling, which narrates the story of humanity from Creation to the coming of Christ. Michelangelo's ability to convey complex theological themes through powerful visual imagery has cemented the Sistine Chapel ceiling as a cornerstone of art history.
