Question

It’s not the Thinker but a 2018 reimagining of a statue of this figure showed him atop a washing machine as part of an advertisement by Samsung. A statue of this figure that was moved into the “Hall of the Clock” was originally intended to be accompanied by a statue by Nanni di Banco. Another depiction of this figure shows flowers covering his chest and pseudo-Arabic script on his tunic is by (*) Andrea del Verrocchio. (10[1])A sculpture of this figure is at risk of collapsing due to the sculpted tree stump supporting its weak ankles. (10[1])That statue of this figure was given as a commission to Agostino di Duccio and looked toward Rome in its original placement at the Palazzo Vecchio. For 10 points, name this sling-wielding biblical character sculpted in marble by Michelangelo, the slayer of Goliath. ■END■
