The work of art most schoking to me has been "DAVID" by Michelangelo.
As everybody knows this sculpture is situated in the art gallery of the academic in Florence.
It´s 5.17 meter high. It´s a marble statue. It was sculpted from 1501 to 1504, it is a masterpiece of Reinassance sculpture.
Michelangelo chose to represent David as an athlete, manly character, very concentrated and ready to flight. The extrem tension is evident in his worried look and in his right hand, holding a stone.
I remember the first tjme when I saw this sculpture, it really shocked me because it´s a colosal, gigantic and enormous statue. I needed to sit in front of him and spend a long time looking at him.
I recommend to everybody who goes to Florence not to miss this chance of visiting DAVID.

Thank's
I will! as soon as posible!
Long sigh...
I certainly agree with you! It's a beautiful piece worth a visit.
Maybe I have not been reading your blog as often as you wanted. I have finally noticed that the link to your blog when you wrote a message was always wrong. I thought to say this in class but now I know how difficult it was for you to manage all these "computer" things.
I certainly appreciate your effort!!
