MICHELANGELO Buonarroti: Rachel

🖼 Rachel, 1545
Marble, height 197 cm
Rome, Italy

Marble captures a woman in contemplative stillness, her body twisting gently while her gaze turns inward. Michelangelo's Rachel embodies the Renaissance ideal of spiritual beauty, representing virtue in the tomb's theological program.
