The tomb of Julius II, with Michelangelo's statues of Rachel and Leah on the left and the right of his Moses.Michelangelo felt that this was his most life-like creation. Legend has it that upon its completion he struck the right knee commanding, "now speak!" as he felt that life was the only thing left inside the marble. There is a scar on the knee thought to be the mark of Michelangelo's hammer.
