Barry X Ball Inteprets the Rondanini Pietà
Barry X Ball interprets the Pietà Rondanini by Michelangelo, located inside the Castello Sforzersco. The work is a tribute by the artist to the famous work of Michelangelo preserved since 2015 in the new Museo della Pietà Rondanini.
The Pietà is Michelangelo’s last (and unfinished work): a testament and meditation on death and salvation of the soul.
