What is Donatello famous for?
1 Answer
Donatello is famous for his work as a sculptor and was one of the key figures of the Italian Renaissance. Inspired by antiquity, his lifelike sculptures marked a major departure from the highly stylized works of the Middle Ages and influenced the work of many subsequent artists, including Michelangelo. Some of Donatello's most notable works include David, Penitent Magdalene, The Equestrian Statue of Gattamelata, Saint George and Saint Mark. Find a diverse assortment of sculptures on 1stDibs.
