Note to Oliviero Rainaldi: Get It Right As Seen Here


Oliviero Rainaldi failed big time with his ugly and now infamous statue at Rome's main train station, Termini: read here and laugh.

Will he get it right the next time? Likely not.

But the lovely statue seen in this photo was made by a true artist worthy of the name, Stefano Locatelli, for the seminary of Bergamo. He did it right and God bless him for it.
