Framed Print of Moving Michael Angelo's statue of David at Florence, 1873. Creator: Unknown. Moving Michael Angelo's statue of David at Florence, 1873. Creator: Unknown
Moving Michael Angelo's statue of David at Florence, 1873....the guardians of Florentine relics of art and antiquity, finding that this grand work was in great danger from the action of the weather, had decided to remove it to some place of safety and shelter...Finally, the gallery of the Academy of the Belle Arti was decided upon for the reception of David...the great slinger was himself slung, with great security, by the ingenuity of Professor Cavaliere de Fabris and the engineer Cavaliere Porra. It was done in such a manner, by an arrangement of iron rods and rubber car-springs, as to resist, or rather to counteract, all the effect of jarring...The view given in our Illustration shows the arrangement of the car and the temporary railroad track (about fifty feet of which is laid at a time) crossing the Piazza Signoria. The Palazzo Vecchio is on the right, in front of which still remains the wooden house in which the statue has been imprisoned during two years past. To the right is the Loggia di Lanzi, while in the intermediate space appears a small corner of the Gallery of the Uffizzi...The sculptor Dupré has been commissioned to produce a duplicate, in marble, to replace the original statue before the Palazzo Vecchio'.
