Almost a decade ago, the BYU Museum of Art received plaster casts of Lorenzo Ghiberti’s renowned Gates of Paradise, originally created for doors of the Baptistery of San Giovanni in Florence, Italy. After a decade of study, research, and restoration, this recast Renaissance masterpiece depicting stories from the Old Testament will finally be seen by the public!
