Yep both by Michalangelo and two of the greatest ever. The idiot who attacked the Pieta with a hammer no less was a crazed Aussie Hungarian which I also happen to be. Never had an inkling to ever do any vandalism in my life though.

At least the Mona Lisa had protective glass.

Apparently Michelangelo said something to the effect that sculpting a statue wasn't that difficult--you just had to remove the stone that shouldn't be there. At least that's how I remember something from an Art Appreciation class many years ago.
