Description: The horns are a result of a misunderstanding - the Hebrew text says that a radiance shone about his face when he came down from Mount Sinai, but the Latin translation could be interpreted as saying that he had horns. From the right angle, and in good light, you can see portraits of Michelangelo and Julius II in Moses' beard. It is said that the Jews of Rome came here in great numbers to venerate the statue when it was set up.
