Michelangelo is renowned for the quality of his sculpture. David is one statue, but he also did Moses as part of the Tomb for Pope Julius, The Pieta located in St. Peter's Basilica, The Bound Slave and the Dying Slave in the Louvre, and the Pieta in the Duomo of Santa Maria Firenze. Equally gifted are the statues of Day, Night, Dawn and Dusk also part of the Tomb of Pope Julius, located in Florence. My favorite is the Pieta, located to the right side of the Sacred Portal of Santa Maria Firenze, Florence

Both the size and scope of it. And it's all in one piece.
"Venus de Milo" is armless, "Nike" (or "Winged Victory") is headless and "Laocoon" is broken and reassembled, but has bits missing.
