The ''Cloak of Conscience'' is a sculpture by Anna Chromý carved from a single block of white marble excavated from the Michelangelo Quarry in Carrara, Italy. It represents her largest work of art since Chromy turned to sculpture from surrealist oil paintings in 1992.〔(Interview (2010)— ''Anna Chromy'' )〕 As a result of her work on The Cloak, Chromy was the first woman to be awarded the Premio Michelangelo, the annual award for sculpture, in 2008.〔(Premio Michelangelo official site (Italian) 2009 )〕 File:Anna Chromy With Cloak.jpg|Anna Chromy with the completed ''Cloak of Conscience''.

The entrance is at the front where one fold of the cloak overlaps the other. The ''Cloak'' is 470 cm high on its plinth. By comparison, ''David'' is 517 cm〔(Stanford University: We finish scanning the David 1999 )〕 and the height of an average adult male is 180 cm. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cloak of Conscience」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
