Florentine Boar Update
In response to this post about the famous Florentine Boar statue not being replaced after restoration in a park in Derby, England, so as not to upset muslims, an anonymous commenter relays the good news that a petition drive in the community resulted in the statue's return to its proper place!
Good news!
The Florentine Boar was replaced in Derby Arboretum in November 2005.See the news and photos here.
This followed a campaign and two thousand signatures demanding its return.
Good news!
