A giant bronze sculpture portraying Pope John Paul II is displayed outside Rome's Termini train Station, Friday, May 20, 2011. The Vatican is dismayed by a giant new sculpture portraying Pope John Paul II, saying the towering bronze work outside Rome's main train station doesn't even look like the late pontiff. Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano says Friday the towering modernistic statue gives the impression a bomb hit the square. The artist, Oliviero Rainaldi, depicts the pontiff as if he is opening his cloak to embrace faithful. But the Vatican says the effect is more like a police sentry box than of a welcoming pontiff.
