Istoričari umetnosti u Italiji dovode u pitanje Mikelanđelovo autorstvo drvene skulpture razapetog Hrista, poznate kao Cristo ritrovato. Italijanska država otkupila je ovo delo za preko 4 miliona dolara prošle godine, i uložila značajna sredstva u promovisanje skulpture. Neki naučnici, međutim, smatraju da je skulptura sasvim slična mnogim drugim drvenim raspećima tog doba, i da se ne može izdvojiti kao Mikelanđelov rad.

Citat:And for critics, it is the association with religion that is part of the problem.

They say the government has endorsed the wooden sculpture as a work by Michelangelo to boost its standing with the Catholic Church, and to burnish its credentials with the electorate as a government of conservative beliefs.

In other words, say the doubters, the sculpture is being used for political, even propaganda, uses by a government intent on spending tax payers money to pursue dubious quasi-artistic ends.
