Japanese Residents Call For Replica Of Michelangelo’s Nude ‘David’ To Be Covered Up
Posted in: Today's ChiliPut some pants on, David!
Modest residents in the Japanese town of Okuizumo are none too pleased with two additions to Minari Sports Park. Replicas of Michelangelo’s David and the ancient Greek sculpture Venus de Milo, erected in the public park, have some locals demanding that the all-too-revealing statues be covered up, according to local reports.
Michelangelo’s David, sculpted in the early 1500s, depicts a completely nude male, while Venus de Milo features a topless woman.
