Quote by Michelangelo Buonarroti
"Corporeal beauty is not to be praised for itself, but as a presentation of divine beauty."
More from Michelangelo Buonarroti
"The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection."
"I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free."
"Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it."
"The sculpture is already complete within the marble block, before I start my work."
