MICHELANGELO Buonarroti: Slave (rebelling)

🖼 Slave (rebelling), c. 1513
Marble, height 229 cm
Paris, France

A muscular male figure writhes in marble, his body contorted against invisible bonds in contrapposto tension. An unfinished masterpiece revealing Michelangelo's revolutionary carving technique and exploring themes of human struggle against constraint.
