Statue of Lorenzo de Medici by Michelangelo from the Medici Chapel, San Lorenzo in Florence.

Enjoy this dynamic sculpture of Lorenzo from the legendary Florentine family, the Medici, of the Renaissance period in Italy. Lorenzo, the Magnificent, was the most famous Medici. He succeeded as head of the Medici family and was an able if autocratic ruler, who made Florence the most powerful state in Italy and led it to its highest flowering.

Designed as a funerary sculpture for the Medici tomb, Lorenzo conveys a sense of grandeur and magnificence in the guise of a Roman military hero. In the original multi-figural sculptural grouping for the tomb, the personifications of Dusk and Dawn accompany him as representations of his power for all eternity. This is Michelangelo's art at its finest!

This Lorenzo de Medici by Michelangelo White Sculpture is made from cold cast resin, in a white finish, measures 11"H x 4.75"L x 5"W.
