MICHELANGELO Buonarroti: Tomb of Lorenzo de‘ Medici
Sculptural figures in contrapposto flank an austere sarcophagus, their languorous poses suggesting melancholy. Michelangelo's allegorical *Dawn*, *Dusk*, *Day*, and *Night* transform grief into monumental form, establishing the Renaissance tomb as a philosophical meditation on mortality and human dignity.
