Michelangelo's David is one of the most renowned sculptures in art history, symbolizing the strength, beauty, and courage of the human spirit. Created between 1501 and 1504, the 17-foot marble masterpiece captures the biblical hero David at the moment before his battle with Goliath, his gaze intense and determined. Michelangelo’s remarkable attention to detail—from the veins in David's hands to the muscular form—demonstrates his deep understanding of human anatomy and the power of expression in sculpture. Today, David stands proudly in the Galleria dell'Accademia in Florence, drawing millions of visitors from around the world who come to admire Michelangelo's extraordinary skill and his timeless representation of human resilience.
