Accademia Gallery, Michelangelo's David Private Tour
Michelangelo's David was carved from a single block of Carrara marble between 1501 and 1504, and it remains the most technically perfect large-scale sculpture in existence. In the Accademia's purpose-built rotunda, lit from the dome above, the 5.17-metre figure's veins, tendons, and concentrated expression are visible. A private guide provides the technical and human story of how Michelangelo saw him inside the stone.
