Critics Assail Italy for Hiding Nude Statues During Rouhani Visit

The Guardian  "For most tourists, it would be the ultimate irritation: visiting one of Italy’s most famous museums, only to find famous exhibits hidden by wooden boxes. But this week, Iran’s president, Hassan Rouhani, apparently enjoyed his time at the Capitoline Museum, despite the fact that many of the artworks were covered up before his trip. Conscientious Italian officials had taken the precaution of concealing nude statues for the first visit in a decade by an Iranian politician – albeit a moderate one – in a bid to be culturally sensitive."
