Answer 2

D. It depicts the figure in a natural, contrapposto pose

Step-by-step explanation:

The sculpture portrays the biblical hero with impressive anatomical realism and is considered one of the most important Renaissance works. Originally commissioned as part of a series of other statues of biblical prophets and heroes, David was set to decorate one of Santa Maria del Fiore's entrances. Michelangelo introduces David as a young athletic man, completely naked with a slingshot over his shoulder. Quiet and fully focused, he seems busy, and gathering forces for the attack.
