The statue is beiing maintained, the first time in more than 500 years. With the ticket available at Oratory of Saint Giorgio, you could join guided tour to the top of the rack surround the statue, to see all details of the statue which is impossible in other time.
An important Christian sight, a beautiful cathedral that dates back to the 13th century. A must see here in Padova. I loved the fact that they have a pious policy about clothes.
Isn't it any other way to secure construction zone, leaving parts of the statue visible? Especially when NO actual works conducting just stydying and planning? And the answer is YES its easy but you need to have respect for travellers.
Shame on you Padua.
I had cancelled next trip to Padua already (and that is not a joke)
Beatific statue here in Padua in front of the church. If you like this kind of stuff or if you’re study art, you should visit it
Covered over at the moment, due to restoration (2023)
Smaller than anticipated and just a bit too high to admire the beauty of the piece. But quite nice nonetheless.
Its importance, art historically, is indisputable. An elegant an impressive monument that captures the political and social power structures of its day.
One of the best examples of the Renaissance Sculpture built by Donatello.
