The David by Michelangelo | Resin with Marble Finish 13" Statue

Michelangelo Buonarroti's sculpture of David, erected in the public plaza of Florance in 1504, is considered a masterpiece that displays an idyllic male form, heroic strength, and human uncertainty. At only 25 years old, Michelangelo took on the challenge knowing he'd have to live up to Donatello, among other precursors, who had sculpted the same heroic figure before him. 

David is portrayed in the Bible as a young shepherd who slew the giant Goliath and went on to become a valiant and just Hebrew king. As the subject of a statue, he seemed to be a fitting symbol of courage and civic duty to guard the city of Florence.

This magnificent 13" statue is masterfully crafted and designed. It's a fitting representation of the original and pays tribute to Michelangelo's genius by showcasing the details and nuances of the work. Made of cast resin with a marble finish, this statue is an excellent addition to any collection, shrine, or showcase. Its felt-lined bottom prevents scratches on delicate surfaces and it comes carefully packaged in a custom-fitted, ready-to-ship box.
