after students were shown an image of Michelangelo’s iconic statue of a nude David viewed the masterpiece in person on Friday in Florence., where the David is the star attraction, said that Hope Carrasquilla, her husband and two children, came straight to the museum right after they arrived in the city.Carrasquilla stepped down as principal of Tallahassee Classical school in the Florida city last month after one parent claimed the towering sculpture was pornographic.
Hollberg added that the work’s nudity “is a clear expression of the Renaissance, which puts man at the center of attention.” Michelangelo’s marble sculpture depicts the Biblical David, naked, with a sling over his shoulder and a rock in his hand, ready for battle with Goliath.Hollberg noted that currently more than 50% of the gallery visitors come from the United States.
“I am sure that Mrs. Carrasquilla will find here, in Florence, the welcome and the solidarity that she deserves,″ the director added.
