Description
This roundel with a baby relief is found in Florence at the Hospital of the Innocents
From about 1445 until 1875 unwanted babies could be abandoned here to be cared for by the institution.
They were wet-nursed and weaned.
And when the time came they were taught skills so as to enter society
