Michelangelo’s statue of “David” has been described as the greatest sculpture of all time. Standing 17ft. 1in. tall, and weighing just over 5 tons, the sheer scale of the statue is breathtaking. Yet, there is much more to this sculpture than just its size. Join Dr. Rocky for this webinar where he will explore the history, iconography, and importance of the sculpture that probably best defines the Renaissance and the great artist who produced it.
