The Boboli Gardens in Florence, Italy is famous for it’s beautiful gardens and sculptures. “Tindaro Screpolato is an enormous bronze statue located in the Boboli Garden in Florence, Italy. There’s a draw to the statue that, all at once, depicts strength and fragility. There’s a sense of loyalty, power, and persistence in the face of adversity.”-My Modern Art.

The texture of the Tindaro Mitts represents the cracks in this famous visage. The pattern is bordered with a mock cable ribbing and the palm is ribbed to hug the hand.
