M	Maurizio Ganzaroli on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Il vòlto del cavallo prende il nome dalla volta che dà accesso alla piazza municipale, e dalla statua equestre di Nicolò Terzo, contrapposta alla figura del Duca Borso d'Este seduto. Le due colonne in marmo vennero create rubando e tagliando lapidi del cimitero ebraico. Le statue in bronzo sono delle copie più volte rifatte nei decenni, poiché più volte sono state fuse per ricavarne metallo per fare palle di cannone, come in epoca napoleonica ad esempio. The horse turned round is named after the time that gives access to the city square, and the equestrian statue of Nicholas Third, as opposed to the figure of the Duke Borso d'Este sitting. The two marble columns were created by stealing and cutting headstones from the Jewish cemetery. The bronze statues are often remade copies over the decades, as many times were melted to extract metal to make cannon balls, as in for example the Napoleonic era.
