I	Iunio Marcello Clementi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ La statua bronzea è opera dello scultore canadese Timothy P. Schmalz che l'ha donata all’Ospedale Santo Spirito di Roma nel 2004. E rappresenta "Gesù mendicante" come si evince dal foro sulla mano lasciato dal chiodo della croce. Il titolo dell'opera è: "Whatsoever you do" dal versetto del Vangelo di Matteo: “In verità vi dico: ogni volta che avete fatto queste cose a uno solo di questi miei fratelli più piccoli, l'avete fatto a me”(Matteo 25:40). The bronze statue is the work of the Canadian sculptor Timothy P. Schmalz who donated it to the Holy Spirit Hospital in Rome in 2004. It represents "Jesus beggar" as evidenced by the hole on the hand left by the nail of the cross. The title of the work is: "Whatsoever you do" from the verse of the Gospel of Matthew: "Truly I tell you: every time you have done these things to one of these younger brothers of mine, you have done it to me" ( Matthew 25:40).
S	Stefano Manzo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A dicembre del 2016 nelle adiacenze dell’ingresso dell’Ospedale Santo Spirito in Sassia, nel rione XIV Borgo, sono state poste due suggestive statue iper-realiste realizzate dallo scultore canadese Timothy P. Schmalz. Le statue sono realizzate in bronzo e fanno parte del ciclo dedicato al Vangelo secondo Matteo, ideato durante il Giubileo straordinario della misericordia (2015) . E interpretano i seguenti versetti: • “Ho avuto fame e mi avete dato da mangiare, ho avuto sete e mi avete dato da bere”. • “Ero malato e mi avete visitato”. Il ciclo comprende anche: • “Ero nudo e mi avete vestito.” (Presso la basilica di San Pietro in Vincoli), • “Ero in carcere e siete venuti a trovarmi.” (Presso la basilica di San Paolo). • “Ero forestiero e mi avete accolto” (Presso la basilica di San Lorenzo in Lucina). NOTA: Nel 2019 è stato inaugurato nella vicina Piazza San Pietro una monumentale e suggestiva composizione dello stesso artista intitolata "Monumento al Migrante". In December 2016, two suggestive hyper-realistic statues created by the Canadian sculptor Timothy P. Schmalz were placed in the vicinity of the entrance of the Santo Spirito Hospital in Sassia, in the XIV Borgo district. The statues are made of bronze and are part of the cycle dedicated to the Gospel according to Matthew, conceived during the extraordinary Jubilee of mercy (2015) . And they interpret the following verses: • "I was hungry and you fed me, I was thirsty and you gave me drink". • "I was sick and you visited me". The cycle also includes: • "I was naked and you dressed me." (At the basilica of San Pietro in Vincoli), • "I was in prison and you came to visit me." (At the basilica of San Paolo). • "I was a stranger and you welcomed me" (At the basilica of San Lorenzo in Lucina). NOTE: In 2019 a monumental and suggestive composition by the same artist entitled "Monumento al Migrante" was inaugurated in nearby St. Peter's Square.
