Gilded Paradise
Recasting Lorenzo Ghiberti's Baptistery Doors
February 20 to October 24, 2026
'Moses Receives the Ten Commandments,' a panel from the Gates of Paradise
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!
After the exhibition ends in October 2026, the Gates of Paradise will be moved to a permanent home in the MOA's West Lied Gallery.
Details to be announed.
