MICHELANGELO Buonarroti: St Matthew

🖼 St Matthew, 1503
Marble, height 271 cm
Florence, Italy

Unfinished marble reveals St Matthew emerging from stone, his muscular form captured mid-liberation through bold chisel work. Michelangelo's non finito technique became revolutionary, influencing centuries of sculpture by celebrating the creative process itself over perfect completion.
