Seeing Michelangelo's David was definitely one of the highlights of our vacation in Florence, Italy.

That moment was almost magical. The moment I stepped on the floor of the exposition hall, I just felt the dominant presence of this magnificent sculpture. It's really hard to describe in words, and it's certainly impossible to capture that feeling rushing through my veins looking at a photography of this statue. 

The staging of this statue is also perfect. The blue sky light dropping from the open ceiling contracts the warm lights in the room. At that moment, all I could think of was "Wow. This is beautiful!"

It's quite a story how we got to the Accademia Gallery (The museum where David is exhibited) since there was a storm that day. But I guess I will save the story for another time. XD

I feel you so much. And I feel that way about the representation of the male form as an archetype of beauty that too often gets annecdotally cast as pornographic, when the female form in art is hailed as "objectively" pure and unthreatening. Both are objectively beautiful in that nature fashioned us in the many forms that we manifest without regard for any one person's requirements for "beauty."

On ne sait pas distinguer les réelles beautés dans ces images

Thank you very much, Adam. It was very much an escape trip for me at the beginning, but the trip quickly becomes exciting after all the visits we did in the galleries and museums. Totally worth it.

You have a great name, can't blame you, haha. XD There are so many amAzing sculptures in Florence (with hot booty). If you managed to visit Italy one day with Jack, you will have a great time I guarantee, even just by walking in the city. XD

Thank you very much, Michael. It was truly an experience. I got to see the art works of my favorite italien masters. XD

Thank you very much, Danny. You are cute too. XD

Yeah totally. I was blown away by the real David. First I didn't realize how big it is. No photos could capture that beauty on paper or screen.

I'm always fascinated by the Italian Renaissance. Look at todays' social media environment, I have a lot of complaints. Censor this censor that, it's tiring. Totally agree on what you said about both genders are beautiful. XD

David Proby

Definitely already planning for a trip to Italy within the next year probably after I come back from my Caribbean cruise with my mom next July. I’m super excited to finally travel with my babe. And thanks Song 😁

That sounds really sweet. I think both your mom and your man will enjoy travelling and discovering new things with you. Take advantage of the trip to know them better as well. One advice: Don't pack too many cloths or shoes. Make your bagagge as small as possible. When we were in Florence, Joe and I actually went shopping and bought a lot of cloths. XD

David Proby

Luckily I will pack enough clothes according to how many days for the trip with a couple extra outfits just in case something does end up happening. But I’m going to try to convince Jack for a bit of sexytime on the balcony and in a secluded area of a beach haha 😈😏

song

Lol Try looking online first for a nice hotel with a bacolny with a beautiful view. It will definitely worth your time after. XD

David Proby

Lol I’ll start looking within the next few days and send the info to Jack so that at least we can have idea on what our budget will be like, even though he’s the breadwinner and has his own successful business worth more than my bachelors degree

Kathryn Gynn

I loved the David, it’s hands down the most beautiful man made thing I’ve ever seen. You two are looking great too. Glad you two had a wonderful time. You deserve it.
