DAVID 467
Some of you may remember David portraying the famous statue that inspired his very name, "David" by Gianlorenzo Bernini. David also portrayed Michelangelo's "David" too. Well, it's time for another statue. At first, I disliked the Farnese Hercules because he lacked the narrow waist of a bodybuilder, but as time went on I came to appreciate the mass of it and the fact that the beauty of the hyper-muscular male was seen and glorified over two thousand years ago.
