This sculpture by Michelangelo was one of the earliest works of art he created in 1494-1495. This angel is located at Basilica of San Domenico in Bologna, Italy. The medium of this sculpture is marble. I find it extremely interesting how Michelangelo was able to get so much detail from carving it out of a rock. I picked this sculpture because of how well its been maintained over the years. I am shocked that not even the wings are knocked off.
