Moses


Michelangelo sculpted Moses holding the commandments under his arm at the center of the Papal monument. He appears tense and angry, but I chose this sculpture by Michelangelo because of its detail. It is said that Michelangelo claims this to be his most realistic statue. After he finished it he hit the leg of the statue and yelled, "Now speak!".
