This is just one little part of Sistine Chapel Frescoes which are Michelangelo's work. The touching fingers are a part of so called The creation of Adam. For more information try:

Are you talking about Michaelangelo's painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel?

It sounds like you are describing a detail of Michelangelo's "Creation of Man," which is a panel of the Cistene Chapel ceiling at the Vatican.

That is obviously an old weathered and cracked movie poster from the popular 1980s film "E.T. The Extra Terrestrial"
