Art historian Adriano Marinazzo came to this conclusion after reading a poem written by Michelangelo in 1509, expressing his anxiety about painting the chapel. The poem reveals that Michelangelo felt 'aimless' as he worked, and this led Marinazzo to believe that the artist was in fact depicting himself as God in The Creation of Adam.
