The Gates of Paradise, 17-foot-tall gilded doors cast from the 15th-century originals, will be installed at the Nelson-Atkins this summer. This promised gift from Paul DeBruce and Linda Woodsmall-DeBruce was discovered in Florence while visiting the Marinelli Foundry. After years of conversations with the Marinelli family and negotiations, the DeBruces acquired the Gates of Paradise. Over the coming weeks, you may see construction near the revolving doors in the Bloch Building—we’re preparing the space for this massive installation!
