is enclosed and well protected in the Galleria dell ' Accademia , not outdoors in the Piazza della Signoria its original site, the David of Michelangelo, perhaps the work of western art most reproduced images, needs to be cleaned every two or three months. It appears that, contrary to what one might think, it gets dirty more in winter than in summer, although the number of visitors, many of them sweaty after queuing to enter the enclosure, is much higher during the warmer months. The explanation is provided by the center director in an interview . The most polluting and, therefore, end up littering the divine block of marble are the heating and cars. But David also needs peeling stringy waste from the clothing of tourists who end up going to settle, as flies are to honey, on its surface. Not only that, but within the animal kingdom has other fans, small spiders attracted to her curls.
Anyway, after two or three months and loses gets light gray. I suppose that few perceive it, but it seems that for now, the significant budget cuts that have suffered cultural property in Italy , have affected the sculpture, part of one of the three most-visited museums .
