St Bartholomew

There is one particular sculpture that caught my attention when I visited the Duomo di Milano for the first time. The piece is called St Bartholomew Flayed, and it was created by Marco d'Agrate back in 1562. And that skinless statue is so unusual that I had to research it and write this article with everything I know now about it.
