    I know it was made of marble, so A is incorrect. B and C are incorrect, because the sculpture depicts David naked, which is symbolism of his meekness, so it gives no symbolism to his determination, and he is certainly not ready for battle if he was naked. The sculpture is 17 feet long, which is much larger than any of the other sculptures. So, I would say D is the correct answer.
