We walked to Castel Nuovo. As we got closer, we admired its grandeur. Venus of the Rags was just around the corner and we spotted it on the way to see some churches. Venus of the Rags is a 38-foot tall mixed media sculpture by Michelangelo Pistoletto (a 91-year-old Italian artist) located in the historic square, Piazza del Municipio, in the heart of Naples.
