A Florence museum and the city's mayor are inviting parents and students from a Florida charter school to visit and see Michelangelo’s sculpture of David.
FILE - German Chancellor Angela Merkel, left, and Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi speak during a press conference in front of Michelangelo's"David statue" after their bilateral summit in Florence, Italy, on Jan. 23, 2015.
Carrasquilla believes the board targeted her after three parents complained about a lesson including a photo of the David, a 5-meter tall nude marble sculpture dating from 1504. The work, reflecting the height of the Italian Renaissance, depicts the Biblical David going to fight Goliath armed only with his faith in God.
“I am totally, like, wow,” Carasquilla said. “I've been to Florence before and have seen the David up close and in person, but I would love to go and be a guest of the mayor.”
