Pieta Marble Renaissance Sculpture

Pieta
c.1498-99
Marble original size: 174 x 195 cm (5 3/4 x 6 ft)
Basilica of St Peter, Vatican

In less than two years Michelangelo carved from a single slab of marble, one of the most magnificent sculptures ever created. His interpretation of the Pieta was far different than those previously created by other artists. Michelangelo decided to create a youthful, serene and celestial Virgin Mary instead of a broken hearted and somewhat older woman.

All marble sculptures are custom made one sculpture at a time.

The artist always starts with a clay model.
