Summary
The author discusses the concept of "great art" and its definition, using Donatello’s bronze statue of David as an example of an innovative and revolutionary work. The statue, created in the mid-fourteenth century Italy, is described as a life-size, freestanding nude sculpture that stands as a symbol of civic virtue.
