When Michelangelo was asked about the creation of his masterpiece of Renaissance sculpture, David, the great Italian sculptor, painter, architect and poet of the High Renaissance formally known as Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, said that he did not carve the statue. "The sculpture is already complete within the marble block, before I start my work. It is already there, I just have to chisel away the superfluous material."
