A replica of one of the most famous works of art in history has come to the Archdiocese of Newark, New Jersey. 

The Rondanini Pieta – the last sculpture Michelangelo worked on before he died – was left incomplete. One Italian company used that same marble to finish the piece and it now stands in a Catholic Cemetery.
