Giuseppe Verdi

The Monument to Giuseppe Verdi is a bronze sculpture on a plinth located in Piazza Michelangelo Buonarroti in Milan, Italy. The statue stands in front of the Casa di Riposo per Musicisti (nursing home for musicians) which had been founded by Giuseppe Verdi, and where he is buried. A contest was announced for proposals for a monument, to be judged by a committee named by members of the Brera Academy.
