We all know Michelangelo's David.
You see David in a relaxed pose,after the battle with Goliath. In Michelangelo's time it was more usual to depict David before the battle, all pumped up, or after the battle, victorious and triumphant, with a foot on Goliath's corpse.
Michelangelo, however, sculpted a David that looks more thoughtful. Most of the tension is gone after he battle, his muscles are relaxed, although you can tell the tension from his face. The slingshot he carries over his shoulder is almost invisible, emphasizing that David's victory was one of cleverness, not sheer strength.

About Modern Art:
As time passed and we learned more about building materials and methods, humans began to construct first huts, then castles and cathedrals, and ultimately skyscrapers and factories.
The use of huge cranes eliminated the backbreaking work of moving bricks, mortar, and cement from floor to floor in high-rise buildings. Methods of prefabricating building components were developed so that many types of structural components, such as pre-hung doors and manufactured stairs and other castings, could be mass produced in factories and shipped to construction sites.

Arkahdia Arts Studio,
a European immigrant now living in New York started a studio dedicated to casting these pieces of Art. By focusing the business on two goals;(1) to save pieces which have been produced in another medium in bygone times, and (2) to bring new artist's work to the public, the product lines have prospered, delighted and excited.
