Michelangelo’s David — one of the most famous sculptures in the world. 🇮🇹✨
Carved from a single block of marble between 1501 and 1504, David stands an incredible 17 feet (5.17 m) tall. Michelangelo captured David in the tense moment before his battle with Goliath, with incredible anatomical detail—from the muscles and veins to his intense expression.
Seeing this Renaissance masterpiece up close at Florence’s Galleria dell’Accademia is completely different from seeing it in pictures. And yes… we had to admire it from every angle! 😂
