Italy's statues have a gender bias, new research reveals
Briefly

The picture that emerges is of inadequate public spaces that reinforce the sexual objectification of women, in a country where 64 females were killed by their partners or ex-partners last year.
Montanari notes that Milan had just one statue of a woman at the time, compared with 125 men, while the busts of Risorgimento-era heroes honoured in Rome include one woman and 228 men.
