Last time I saw it was in 1996. It was not in a sealed case then, as I recall, but there was a sign that, in several languages, stated that no flash photography was allowed... while all around were tourists snapping flash photos.

My parents were at the Louvre a couple of years ago. People were touching the statue of David. My dad was incensed!

Michelangelo's "David" is in Florence, Italy, last I knew.

I thought David was in Florence? Was it on loan?
