Su alcuni celebri restauri,
il Marco Aurelio
Giovanni Urbani
In this essay, Giovanni Urbani discusses the restoration of the bronze equestrian statue representing the Roman emperor Marco Aurelio, located in Piazza del Campidoglio in Rome. His strong opposition to the removal of the statue was based on the convinction that with a due prevention, the original bronze could remain on its Michelangelo’s basement in the middle of Campidoglio square.
