Respuesta :
The subject of David has important art historical precedents in the work of two Donatello and Michelangelo renaissance artists.
Italian artist Donato di Niccolò Bardi, better known by his stage name Donatello, was active in the early 15th century during the Renaissance. A thin, adolescent is depicted in his bronze David sculpture standing on the head of the Go-liath.
David, who just be-headed Go-liath after the fight, is clutch-ing a sw-ord rather than the sling. But that is not the unique quality of this statue.
A second David was ordered by Florence in 1501, fifty years after the first one, this sculpted by Michelangelo Bounarroti. Same city, same subject, yet Donatello's bronze.
David is noticeably different from Michelangelo's marble version. Of course, both are male sculptures with Classical influences. However, Michelangelo's David is older with pronounced muscles and a distinct feeling of masculinity, in contrast to Donatello, whose form is youthful and nearly ambiguous.
Additionally, Donatello's 5-foot-tall David is substantially smaller than Michelangelo's 17-foot-tall statue.
