LA PIETÀ Michelangelo, St. Peter's Basilica:
A Brief History:
The Pietà ( meaning Pity or Compassion ), made by the Renaissance Michelangelo Buonarroti, is housed in St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican City. It is one of the most beautiful and impressive works in the history of Western art and one of the best known by the author.
Pietà, as a theme in Christian art, depiction of the Virgin Mary supporting the body of the dead Christ.
DAMAGE IN 1972:
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Forty-nine years ago, a crazed Hungarian named Laszlo Toth jumped an altar railing in St. Peter's Basilica and dealt 12 hammer blows to Michelangelo's Pieta, severely damaging the Renaissance masterpiece.
After the attack, the work was painstakingly restored and returned to its place in St. Peter's, just to the right of the entrance, between the holy door and the altar of Saint Sebastian, and is now protected by a bulletproof acrylic glass panel.
