Of all the Michelangelo’s masterpieces, this Pietà is the one I love most. It is an unfinished work (Michelangelo died before completing it) but to my eyes it is perfect, as it truly represents the human state of being in this world with our incompleteness, imperfections, distortions, imbalances. For this very reason deserving no less but even more love and compassion from the companions of our existence. For life is an ever unfinished work and imperfections are what make us humans and lovable.
