Color:

The graceful figure of a youth in a twisting pose is mysterious in both mood and subject; the elements that would confirm an identity as either the biblical giant-killer David or the pagan sun-god Apollo were never completed. With flesh areas covered by a fine network of chisel marks, the statue is a fascinating example of the non-finito, the unfinished condition that allows viewers to study the scullptural process in many works by Michelangelo. This statue was displayed t the Gallery once before, in 1949, to celebrate Italian-American friendship at the time of President Harry Truman's inauguration. This object is part of "Scan The World".
