The statue is a replica of a statue may MichaelAngelo.
We stayed in a smaller suite in main building for a few days in late March and were blown away by grounds especially. Your pictures really do capture the beauty of the enormous park between the main building and Conventino. We wandered and found lots of grottos, hidden paths up hills, etc that kept my son running around for an hour when we first got in. Thanks for pictures, really beautiful.
