Glasgow subway blocks poster over Michelangelo statue nudity
A poster for an Italian Restaurant with Michelangelo's naked statue of David has been barred from Glasgow Subway .
The Firm that manages the advertising space requested for the poster to be edited to hide The Statue 's nudity.
DRG Group, which owns Glasgow's Barolo restaurant, said it was " surprised" by the response to the advert - which shows The Renaissance sculpture eating a slice of pizza.
It created a new version of the poster that hides The Statue 's crotch area.
Nadine Carmichael, head of sales and marketing, said: " We had artwork in place and discussed if we could cover the crotch with a flag.
" We got stickers made and the feedback was that they weren't actually big enough.
" Our next port of call was to show Michelangelo from the waist up. We got there in The End . "
DRG said its wanted to use classic Italian art to showcase The Restaurant 's food, with the Mona Lisa also discussed as a possible candidate.
