"Study for an Arm of the Marble David and the Figure of the Bronze David" is a preparatory work by the renowned Italian Renaissance artist Michelangelo Buonarroti, created as part of his process in sculpting two of his most famous masterpieces, the marble statue of David and a lesser-known bronze counterpart. Michelangelo's David, completed in the early 16th century, is a monumental sculpture that has become an iconic symbol of both the Renaissance and the city of Florence. The marble David is celebrated for its exquisite representation of the human form and for capturing the biblical hero in a moment of contemplative readiness before his battle with Goliath.

The study, which would have been executed in the early 1500s, reflects Michelangelo's meticulous approach to his craft, showcasing his deep understanding of human anatomy and his ability to translate that knowledge into his work. These preparatory sketches and models were crucial to Michelangelo's process, allowing him to work through the challenges of representing the human figure in three dimensions and to plan the complex poses and musculature that his sculptures required.

While the marble David is well-documented and remains on display at the Galleria dell'Accademia in Florence, the bronze David is less well-known. It was commissioned by the French ambassador to the Holy See, Robert de Clermont, and completed in 1508. Unlike the marble version, the bronze David is not extant, and knowledge of its appearance is based on written descriptions and a handful of preparatory sketches, such as the "Study for an Arm of the Marble David and the Figure of the Bronze David."

The study itself is a testament to Michelangelo's relentless pursuit of perfection and his devotion to the classical ideals of beauty and proportion. It provides insight into the artist's creative process and the evolution of his work from concept to completion. As with many of Michelangelo's preparatory works, the study is an important piece of art historical evidence, offering a glimpse into the techniques and thought processes of one of the greatest artists of all time.
