  • El Monumento a Savonarola en Piazza Savonarola es una estatua de mármol al aire libre en un pedestal en honor del fraile dominico del siglo XV Girolamo Savonarola; está ubicado en una plaza del mismo nombre, a pocas cuadras de Viali di Circonvallazione, en el noreste de Florencia , región de la Toscana, Italia. Este monumento tiene una colorida historia de migraciones. La estatua fue completada alrededor de 1875 por Enrico Pazzi, un nativo de Ravenna, en un momento en que los sentimientos antipapales eran muy altos en Italia. Sin embargo, Savonarola siempre ha sido una figura histórica polarizante, maniática en su fe, y el autor de la hoguera original de las vanidades . Su teología no era compatible con el pensamiento liberal contemporáneo. La estatua fue concebida por los pazzi en 1861, quienes habitualmente creaban monumentos públicos antes de ser requisados. ​ En 1869 se formó un comité para encargar un monumento a Savonarola, que se colocaría en el convento de San Marco; sin embargo, no eligieron el modelo de Pazzi, sino que eligieron uno de Giovanni Duprè , un antiguo mentor de Pazzi. Esto iba a llevar a un conflicto feroz entre los dos escultores. En 1870, otro comité, presidido por el Príncipe Ferdinando Strozzi , fue seleccionado para encargar la estatua más grandiosa y más antipapal de Pazzi, y obtuvo el permiso de la Comuna para ubicar la escultura en el primer claustro del convento florentino. ​ Sin embargo, la caída en los ingresos causada por la transferencia de la capital de Italia de Florencia a Roma, canceló este proyecto. En 1873, Duprè completó su contribución: una placa simple y un busto en relieve colocado en la celda del fraile en San Marco. El trabajo de Pazzi, completado solo en 1875, no encontró suficientes suscriptores y, en última instancia, fue donado al Ayuntamiento. Permaneció en el estudio hasta 1882, cuando se instaló, con mucha crítica, en el nicho del extremo sur del Salone dei Cinquecento en el Palazzo Vecchio . Una justificación para esta colocación fue que Savonarola había encargado la creación de esta gran sala en 1497. Todavía había rumores de que sería trasladado en el futuro al recinto de San Marco. ​ ​ La estatua había desplazado nada menos que una estatua de Miguel Ángel , colocada aquí por Vasari . Incluso en este nicho, las causas provinciales y de otro mundo de Savonarola no encajaban con el nacionalismo italiano que estaba en demanda después de la reciente guerra mundial. Además, muchos críticos florentinos nunca se contentaron con la eliminación del heroico Genio de la victoria por parte de Miguel Ángel. En última instancia, incluso si no está terminado, el sutil trabajo de Miguel Ángel pudo vencer la escultura pulida del sacerdote frenético de la fe, algo insoportable. En 1921, la estatua de Savonarola fue exiliada a este parque suburbano plagado de grafiti. De alguna manera, el sacerdote ferrarese nunca estaba en casa en Florencia. Savonarola se encuentra en un pedestal diseñado por Olinto Rimediotti . Savonarola se representa con su mano derecha mientras levanta una cruz, recordando su declaración durante un sermón público en 1495, de que Cristo fue el nuevo rey de Florencia . La mano izquierda de su vestido protege, o quizás ahoga, al marzocco , un símbolo de la República de Florencia . Se ha planificado la restauración del monumento. ​ La estatua carece del drama dominante e hipnótico del Monumento de bronce a Girolamo Savonarola en Ferrara por Stefano Galletti . (es)
  • The Monument to Savonarola in Piazza Savonarola is an outdoor marble statue on a plinth in honor of the 15th-century Dominican friar Girolamo Savonarola; it is located in a piazza of the same name a few blocks outside of the Viali di Circonvallazione, in Northeastern Florence, region of Tuscany, Italy. This monument has a colorful history of migrations. The statue was completed circa 1875 by Enrico Pazzi, a native of Ravenna, at a time, when anti-papal feelings ran high in Italy. However, Savonarola has always been a polarizing historic figure, maniacal in his faith, and the perpetrator of the original Bonfire of the Vanities. His theology was not compatible with contemporary liberal thought. The statue was conceived by Pazzi in 1861, who habitually created public monuments before they were requisitioned. A committee was formed in 1869 to commission a monument to Savonarola, which was to be placed in the convent of San Marco; however, they did not choose Pazzi's model, but instead chose one by Giovanni Duprè, a former mentor of Pazzi. This was to lead to fierce conflict between the two sculptors. In 1870, another committee, chaired by Prince , selected to commission Pazzi's more grandiose and more anti-papal statue, and obtained the Commune's permission to site the sculpture in the first cloister of the Florentine convent. However, the drop in revenue caused by the transfer of the capital of Italy from Florence to Rome, cancelled this project. By 1873, Duprè completed his contribution: a simple plaque and relief bust placed in the cell of the friar in San Marco. Pazzi's work, completed only in 1875, did not find enough subscribers, and was donated ultimately to the Town Hall. It remained in studio till 1882, when it was installed, to much criticism, into the niche of the southern end of the Salone dei Cinquecento in the Palazzo Vecchio. One justification for this placement was that Savonarola had commissioned the creation of this large hall in 1497. There was still rumors that it would be moved in the future to the precinct of San Marco. The statue had displaced none other than a Michelangelo statue, placed here by Vasari. Even in this niche, Savonarola's provincial and other-worldly causes did not fit the Italian nationalism that was in demand after the recent world war. In addition, many Florentine critics were never content with the removal of the heroic Genius of Victory by Michelangelo. Ultimately, even if unfinished, the subtle Michelangelo work was able to vanquish the polished sculpture of the somewhat unsufferable, faith-frenzied priest. In 1921, Savonarola's statue was exiled to this graffiti-ridden suburban park. In some ways, the Ferrarese priest was never quite at home in Florence. Savonarola stands on a plinth designed by . Savonarola is depicted with his right hand while raising a Cross, recalling his declaration during a public sermon in 1495, that Christ was the new King of Florence. The left hand of his gown protects, or perhaps smothers, the Marzocco, a symbol of the Republic of Florence. Restoration of the monument has been planned. The statue lacks the commanding and hypnotic drama of the bronze in Ferrara by . (en)
