For the art lovers this is a wonderful thing happened in Florence in the last few days! Medical technology has helped restore to life a terracotta Madonna and Child by Renaissance sculptor Jacopo Sansovino.
Florence art critics said they did not know exactly when the artwork had been broken and who was responsible for a series of restorations, which ruined it, altering the shape and colour of the piece. 


The work was presented to the media in Florence before its return to the Civic Museum of Vicenza.
