What To Expect
Part of the day dedicated to the Renaissance Florentine sculpture par excellence: Michelangelo's David. In the artistic studio of Octavio Palomino, a sculpture workshop will be held using the lost form technique in plaster, obtaining a copy of an anatomical detail of Michelangelo's David. You can sculpt your own plaster sculpture with a mallet and chisel.
The sculpture can be packaged and taken away directly by our guests, remaining forever a tangible memory of your Florentine stay!
