ITALY
On 55 lists and 70 people have done it.
Michelangelo's David is a 5.17-meter-tall marble statue sculpted between 1501 and 1504, depicting the biblical figure as a young man in a contrapposto pose, holding a sling over his shoulder and gazing intently forward. Housed in the Galleria dell'Accademia in Florence, Italy, since 1873, it exemplifies Renaissance ideals of human anatomy and proportion, drawing from classical influences while showcasing Michelangelo's skill in carving detailed musculature and veins from a single block of Carrara marble.
