San Rossore Reliquary
The San Rossore Reliquary is a 1424-1427 gilded bronze sculpture by Donatello. The monks of Ognissanti, Florence had acquired the skull of Saint Luxorius (popularly known in Pisa as 'san Rossore') in 1422 and two years later they commissioned the reliquary to house it. The sculpture arrived in Pisa in 1591 and is now in the city's Museo nazionale di San Matteo.

gollark: I feel like that would just be OCaml but the ecosystem is even more nonexistent.
gollark: It has nice features but also horrible things.
gollark: I tried using it for stuff and I disliked it.
gollark: Haskell is obviously no, Python is quite slow and has different ecosystem problems as well as a remarkable amount of weird inconsistency, JS dependencies break after about 5 months and it's an awful language, Rust is somewhat nice but annoying compared to higher level languages, Clojure is maybe good however Lisp and also Java (well, JVM), and... that's about it?
gollark: OCaml suffers from the same sort of ecosystem problem.
