The other half of this blog has convinced me to rewrite this post because it was too negative, so I will try it again, more blandly. This is the statue of the “Madonna dei Popoli” (Our Lady of the Peoples), by the Pisan sculptor Paolo Grigò.
The sculpture, placed on a basement at the entrance of the port of Livorno, was unveiled last September in a formal ceremony.
A final shot of the statue against the stern ramp of the passing “Eurocargo Malta”.

A welcoming figure.
Whenever we are too negative, it is helpful to have someone to tell us to lighten up!
She's beautiful.
Well now, this couldn't be more bland! I like the pedestal best...
This is GREAT. I like the details on the sculpture.
Somehow I get the feeling you weren't that happy with the sculpture of the Madonna.
A nice welcoming figure, I wonder how high she is...
Bella statua, mi piace per l'originalità! Ciao, Arianna
She could do with less color. But there is a lot of history there, especially on the bottom part.
(Now I'm curious about your first draft, VP.)
I agree with cieldequimper the pedestal looks great.
This is truly unexpected! So contrasting.
