Today, Monday, July 6th, an international panel of researchers will present papers and findings detailing a "Renaissance whodunnit" of the art history world, as two bronze statues dating to the early 16th century may finally be attributed to Michelangelo. The sculptures, each of a man riding a panther in the nude, were studied by a broad team of researchers and artists from the University of Warwick (including an anatomist and the Warwick Manufacturing Group--WMG), the University of Cambridge, Birmingham University, Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands, and the UK's Fitzwilliam Museum. The WMG used a portable scanner to get a 360 degree 3D scan of the originals, and then UK-based Propshop created 3D printed models of the statues, from which an artist is creating bronze recreations to study the originals.
