David in Mourning for Manchester

The copy of Michelangelo’s David in Piazza Signoria is now wearing a black armband and has a Union Jack draped in his hand to commemorate the 22 victims of the May 22 suicide bomber in Manchester, England.  “Florence embraces the people of Great Britain in solidarity,” commented Mayor Dario Nardella.
