What you're looking at on the Baptistery after dark isn't quite the original: the famous bronze east doors, nicknamed the 'Gates of Paradise' by Michelangelo himself, took sculptor Lorenzo Ghiberti and his workshop 27 years to complete (1425-1452). The panels on the building today are gilded replicas — the real ones were removed for preservation and now sit, restored, inside the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo a short walk away.
The Duomo's own facade is younger than most visitors assume, too: the polychrome marble front you'll photograph lit up at night wasn't finished until 1887. The medieval cathedral actually stood with a bare, unfinished face for roughly three centuries after its original Gothic facade was torn down in 1588 — what exists now is a 19th-century design by Emilio De Fabris.
Down in the Mercato Nuovo, the bronze Porcellino boar was cast in 1633 by Pietro Tacca, itself a copy of a Roman-era marble original that Cosimo I received as a gift from the Pope back in 1560. The rub-its-nose-for-luck tradition is a later, 19th-century habit, but it's already done its work — the snout gleams gold against the dulled bronze of the rest of the animal.
