Il David, conservato alla Galleria dell’Accademia di Firenze, venne scolpito nel 1504 da Michelangelo Buonarroti su commissione dell’Opera del Duomo.
Nel 2003 è stato effettuato un intervento di restauro alla statua del David di Michelangelo Buonarroti, intervento necessario alla ripulitura della statua dalle macchie scure ed è stato definito un programma di monitoraggio a cui la statua sarà sottoposta ogni anno per far sì che anche i posteri beneficino di quest’opera colossale.
Donatello - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (474 words)
Donatello was the son of Nicolo di Betto Bardi, a member of the Florentine Woolcombers Guild, and was born in Florence, probably in 1386.
Brunelleschi's buildings and Donatello's monuments are the supreme expression of the spirit of this era in architecture and sculpture and exercised a potent influence upon the painters of that age.
Donatello probably did not return to Florence before 1405, since the earliest works in that city that can be traced to his chisel are two small statues of prophets for the north door of the cathedral, for which he received payment in November 1406 and in the beginning of 1408.
