La Accademia

We went to the Accademia with class and these are the pictures we got. It was a ragingly long lecture (about 3 hrs) for what is a actually a very small museum, here are for sure the highlights:


Michelangelo's Captives, originally meant for the rather pagan design of Pope Jlius II's tomb, but never finished because Michelangelo moved onto other projects and then never got back to it. That's not like him at all of course... cough.


They're in the hall which leads up to the David.


The David, and my matching outfit. We're BFFs.


This Bronzino painting is just to the left of the David. It's here because I love Bronzino and this painting is almost as big as the David.
