Michelangelo David Cast

Plaster Cast of Michelangelo's David in the V&A (cast date 1856)Having mentioned the V&A Museum's plaster cast of Michelangelo's David in Tuesday's post showing Donatello's David (CLICK), I thought you might like to see the Michelangelo cast. This graphic gives a better idea of the scale of David than do most photos of the original. To the left of the city gent with the brolly is a cast of another Michelangelo: Crouching Boy. Two Michelangelo masterpieces in one shot, taken in London! For more information, click the title link to read The Cast Courts by Malcolm Baker.
