Replica of statue of David, Renaissance statue replica in Piazza della Signoria, Florence, Italy

The white marble replica stands 5.17 meters tall, displaying the biblical hero David in his youth before the battle with Goliath.

The replica replaced the original masterpiece in 1910 after authorities moved Michelangelo's creation to the Accademia Gallery for protection in 1873.

This reproduction maintains the symbolic presence of Florence's commitment to independence, represented through David's determined stance against superior forces.

The replica allows visitors to examine the statue's details in open air while providing excellent photo opportunities with the Palazzo Vecchio as background.

The statue serves as a reference point for measuring the differences in marble weathering between protected and exposed conditions over extended periods.
