More than 100 years before the circulatory system was first described by medical science, Michelangelo perfectly sculpted the jugular vein in his sculpture of David.

520 years ago, on September 8, 1504, the most famous statue in the world was unveiled in Florence - a thread 🧵 Image
David was originally commissioned as one of twelve statues for the roof of Florence Cathedral.

Once completed, its perfection made it too beautiful for that spot, so it was instead placed in the public square in front of the Palazzo della Signoria, Florence’s civic seat. Image
At 17 feet tall and weighing 6 tons, David is not only the first colossal marble statue of the High Renaissance but also the largest since classical antiquity.

In 1873 it was moved to the Galleria dell'Accademia, where it’s now dusted every 2-3 months by restorers. Image
