29:09Now PlayingLorenzo Ghiberti spent 27 years creating what Michelangelo called “The Gates of Paradise” — the stunning bronze doors of the Florence Baptistery. Now, a high-quality replica is on display at the BYU Museum of Art.
In this episode, we talk about:
The incredible story behind Ghiberti’s masterpiece
How BYU-Hawaii discovered plaster casts of the doors
How BYU Provo recreated them with modern technology
Why these doors are filled with powerful biblical scenes
A fun suggestion: Should these doors go on the Salt Lake Temple?
We also touch on another exciting replica project Ward Radio is working on involving the famous Tree of Life stone (Izapa Stela 5).
Latter-day Saints continue to lead the way in preserving and celebrating beautiful religious art.
