The 'David' in Florence, Italy.
He is poised before a burst of movement.
Michelangelo had tons of accomplishments, but his most famous ones are the Last Judgement in the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican, the Ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, the Pieta in Saint Peter's Basilica, and the David, which is in the Academia of Florence. The Last Judgement was completed in 1541, the Sistine Chapel ceiling in 1512, the Pieta in 1500, and the David in 1504.
His most famous paintings are the Genesis scenes on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel (in the Apostolic Palace of the Vatican). He also did the altar fresco "The Last Judgment". He is also known for two very famous sculptures : The Pieta and the Statue of David. (The former is in St. Peter's Basilica, while David is in Florence's Galleria dell'Accademia.)
Michelangelo is best known for painting the Sistine Chapel; however, some of his other famous works include the statue of David, and the Pieta, a marble statue of Mary holding the body of her son Jesus on her lap. Michelangelo was also the architect of the Laurentian Library and the later stages of St. Peter's Basilica, in Rome.The ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and the statue of David

The positioning of the body creates a sense of movement and fluidity, showcasing Michelangelo's skill in depicting the human form in a dynamic and realistic manner.
