''The Young David'' is a celebrated Renaissance sculpture created by the Italian artist Andrea del Verrocchio in the latter half of the 15th century. Crafted from bronze, it depicts the biblical hero David, a favored subject of Florentine art, who was often symbolized as a model of civic virtue and a defender of the republic. The statue is believed to have been commissioned by the Medici family, the powerful dynasty that ruled Florence and were great patrons of the arts.

Verrocchio's ''David'' stands out for its detailed realism and the psychological intensity it conveys. The sculpture portrays David after his victory over the giant Goliath, whose head lies at David's feet. Unlike earlier representations of David by Donatello and others, Verrocchio's David is not an idealized hero but a more youthful, almost boyish figure, imbued with a sense of both contemplation and readiness. The work is noted for its virtuosity in the rendering of the textures, from the soft flesh of the young hero to the intricate details of his armor and clothing.

Measuring approximately 125 cm in height, the statue is now housed in the Museo Nazionale del Bargello in Florence, Italy. ''The Young David'' is not only a masterpiece of Verrocchio's oeuvre but also a significant contribution to the development of Renaissance sculpture, reflecting the transition from the quattrocento to the more dynamic and expressive art of the High Renaissance. The sculpture has been influential in the study of the period's artistic techniques and has been extensively analyzed for its style, symbolism, and historical context within the Florentine Republic.

Andrea del Verrocchio, whose real name was Andrea di Michele di Francesco de' Cioni, was an influential figure in Renaissance art, known for his work in sculpture, painting, and goldsmithing. He ran one of the most successful workshops in Florence and was the master of several important artists, including Leonardo da Vinci, who is believed to have contributed to some of Verrocchio's works. ''The Young David'' stands as a testament to Verrocchio's skill and his impact on the Renaissance art world.
