Many other artists at the time of Michelangelo judged the block of marble not suited for the statue when it was partially realised. It was said that the statue would have been to heavy and the legs not strong enough to stand it, because of the hollow that Michelangelo left between them. But Michelangelo was a genius and found a way to permit the statue to stand on its feet. David concentrates all his weight on the right leg, so that the left part could be lighter and balance the lifted arm. Book on our site tickets booking for Michelangelo’s David.

A commission of Florentine artists wanted to put it under the Loggia de’Lanzi, in Piazza della Signoria. Michelangelo strongly opposed this idea as under the Loggia de’ Lanzi the statue would have been less visible. Then it was decided to put is aside one of the entrances of Palazzo Vecchio, right where there is the copy of the statue now. Here the statue was exposed at the atmospheric agents. After many times, in the seventies of the 19th century, the statue was moved to the Accademia Gallery where you can see it today with the ticket booking for Michelangelo’s David.
