I had the great experience of getting close enough to touch this magnificent spectacular piece. It truly makes the hair on the back of your neck stick out. How anyone could want to damage it is beyond me. Today it’s protected by thick glass
When I was 15 back in 1975, we went to Rome and back then you were allowed to approach the PIETA and touch the base. It was an amazing experience for this teenager. A few years later some IDIOT approached the statute and started hitting it with a hammer. Now it sits behing protective glass.
