Art Museum Collection The most famous exhibit in the Accademia Art Museum is Michelangelo's David statue. In addition, you can see its replicas in all the squares or exhibition halls in the streets and alleys of Florence. The statue of David was originally placed on the municipal square, but the man was so popular that the school had to move it indoors to protect him. In addition to the David statue, other exquisite works by Michelangelo are also displayed here. You can also see important paintings by many well-known alumni, as well as modern and modern student works. The Accademia Gallery is an integrated place of European painting art, with a collection of works by the Venetian Tuscan painters from the 14th to the 18th centuries, such as Giorgione, Giovanni and Bellini. In addition, there are masterpieces of Italian art such as Titian's unfinished "Portrait of the Virgin of the Lamentation of Jesus".
