Surgeons use scalpels, musicians instruments, artists paintbrushes, to work their passionate craft. Gepetto used simple woodworking tools to produce a receptacle for his love and an end to his loneliness. But most importantly, he created a path to immortality, a wooden seed in the form of a son named Pinnochio. The puppet formed by these tools helps illustrate the very human theme of the communion between form and spirit.

Gepetto's tools are on permanent display in the west room on the first floor.
