RE: The Old Dog Revisits: The David, is it Really Out of Proportion?

The statue is stunning. Although l have not seen the real one, I am amazed how it was made from a single block. Honestly I did not know about the dispropotion, but that's what the tourist guides are for - to tell interesting facts. And now when I look at it again, it looks like the head and the hands are slightly bigger.

Very interesting post with new information about this famous masterpiece.
