A billboard advertisement for luxury Italian jeweler Bulgari featuring actress Julianne Moore has been banned in Venice for being a bit too risqué, according to media reports.
The billboard, which was to be displayed on Doge's Palace overlooking St. Mark's Square, features the actress lying naked, covered by a handbag and two lion cubs. Recently elected Mayor Giorgio Orsoni blocked the use of the billboard on the city's landmark, reportedly saying it isn’t appropriate for the famed square.
A different image, showing Moore fully clothed and wearing Bulgari jewelry, will be displayed instead, according to media reports.
