A restorer involved in the renovation of a popular bull mosaic in Milan says he did not remove the two sculpted “testicles” that visitors had long treated as a good-luck feature. Multiple Australian outlets report that the bull’s groin area was commonly stamped by people hoping for luck, and the mosaic eventually required restoration due to wear. When the refreshed mosaic was unveiled, observers noticed that two prominent pieces associated with the testicles were missing. The restorer denies responsibility for removing them, disputing suggestions that the change was intentional. The reports describe the missing elements as part of what had become a recognizable attraction for visitors. While the outlets agree on the restoration context, the long-standing “lucky” tradition, and the fact that two pieces appear absent after work was completed, they also note the restorer’s denial. The story centers on competing claims about whether the missing pieces were removed during restoration or absent for other reasons.
