Michelangelo's David - fine art or porn?
Throngs of visitors flocked to see Michelangelo’s David sculpture on Tuesday as Florence’s Galleria dell’Accademia reopened to the public following the weekend uproar over a Florida school’s decision to force the resignation of the principal over complaints about a lesson featuring the Renaissance masterpiece. Tourists, many of them Americans on spring break, posed for selfies in front of the giant marble statue, which features the Biblical David, naked but for a rock and slingshot, heading to battle Goliath, that has now become a flashpoint of how U.S. culture wars are perceived in Europe.
