The highlight of the Accademia is Michelangelo’s ‘David.’ This magnificent statue commands the museum’s central gallery and has become an emblem of Renaissance brilliance. Take the opportunity to admire this masterpiece and appreciate its beauty from every angle.
Michelangelo was in his early 20s when he sculpted the statue from a single block of Carrara marble. Standing at 17 feet (5.17 meters) tall, it depicts the Biblical hero, David, who defeated Goliath. Unveiled in 1504, it quickly became a symbol of the defense of civil liberties represented by the Florentine Republic.
Besides ‘David,’ the Accademia also features several unfinished sculptures by Michelangelo, along with a collection that includes works by Botticelli, Paolo Uccello, Andrea del Sarto, and others. Enjoy the insightful commentary about the artwork on display from your guide throughout the tour.
