One of Donatello’s most important bronze statues is being restored: should it ever be shown outdoors again?

Donatello's monumental 1453 bronze equestrian statue, Gattamelata, has been moved from its outdoor plinth in Padua to a nearby indoor hall for a major €1 million restoration.

The restoration is funded by two American non-profit organizations, Friends of Florence and Save Venice.

A lawyer for the estate intervened, threatening civil action for defamation, which led the judge to pause proceedings until April.
