The Gallery is called Uffizi Gallery. The Original Boy with Thorn, also called Fedele (Fedelino) or Spinario, is a Greco-Roman Hellenistic bronze sculpture of a boy withdrawing a thorn from the sole of his foot, now in the Palazzo dei Conservatori, Rome. A Roman marble of this subject from the Medici collections is in this corridor at the Uffizi Gallery, Florence, and that is the one in this Picture. Today all these Sculptures are behind very thick Perspex to protect them from us/the people who love them, Go figure. |
