This bronze bust of Riccardo Dalla Vedova can be seen at the foot of the main staircase of the Orthopedics Department of the Policlinico Umberto I, located in a separate building in the nearby Università La Sapienza of Rome. As it can be read in the Italian inscription, the bust was a gift of Dalla Vedova’s disciples in 1936, when the new building for the Orthopedics Department was inaugurated, thanks to the tenacity of the master.
