A Comparison of Donatello's David and Michelangelo's David .
This paper will argue - through a comparison of these two works - that the physical aesthetics of both sculptures can only be understood in terms of the cultural contexts that produced them. Their significance, and that of their respective visions of male beauty, thus requires those who approach them to do so with reference to the specific talents and genius of the men who created them. 6 pgs. 14 f/c. 7b.
