About this work

This photo shows a black-and-white view of a courtyard with a statue at its center. The statue looks like a human figure, standing under an archway. The courtyard is surrounded by buildings with columns and arches, and a few people are scattered around. The photo was taken to document the Crystal Palace’s sculpture court, where a famous statue called *David* by Donatello was displayed. The image is grainy and lacks color, but the details of the architecture are clear. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more photos like this.
