In Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam (c. 1512), the physical gap and differing finger positions between God and Adam are widely interpreted as a powerful visual metaphor for free will.God is depicted with his arm and finger fully extended, reaching toward Adam with maximum effort and energy. This symbolizes that divine grace and the "spark of life" are always present and accessible.Adam's hand, instead, is relaxed and his finger is slightly bent at the last joint.
