MICHELANGELO Buonarroti: Moses

🖼 Moses, 1515
Marble, height 235 cm
Rome, Italy

Carved from marble, Moses sits in powerful repose, his muscular form and furrowed brow radiating divine authority and barely contained rage. This sculpture became the Renaissance ideal of human dignity and psychological depth, influencing Western art's portrayal of prophetic authority for centuries.
