Donatello's second visit to Rome took place between 1432 and 1433. The artist returned to Florence not only with a vivid impression of classical and Hellenistic works but also with a strong admiration for the brilliant effect of the medieval Cosmatesque decoration in coloured mosaic that he had observed in many Roman churches.This influence became very marked in the works he executed in Florence during the ten years that followed his visit. One example is the unfinished marble David, now in the Washington National Gallery.
