David is the first instance of "awe" I had in my life. I truly feel blessed to have had that qualia, even if for a few seconds, to witness something larger-than-life. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Awe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Awe
The fact that so many people report awe feelings with David hints at something very grand about Michaelangelo, or even humanity at large.
Did I feel that way because I did not expect the statute to be so large ? The strength displayed to be so soft ? Was there something in the air ?
The only other instance I had of such a feeling was at the Lake Louise, in Alberta (Canada). In both moments, I could remember the thought of seeing something that could not be in any point better than it is.
