A Little History for Context: Michelangelo’s David & Its Home
Carved from a single, once-abandoned block of marble, David became the symbol of Florence’s fearless spirit in the early 1500s. Michelangelo’s mastery lies not only in anatomy but in the tension and resolve he captured before the battle. Today, meeting David in Florence connects families to a city where artists, patrons, and brilliant ideas transformed stone into living stories- an ideal first chapter in your children’s lifelong love of art.
