I have a very vague memory of this episode, so bare with me. I saw this when I was like 7, so its been awhile.
I distinctly remember Lisa either being the primary protagonist in this episode, or just having a prominent room.
There was a statue or painting of a famous (fictional) historical figure (?).
He was one legged and at one point the kids or someone dig up/exhume/find the man’s remains. They might even have reunited him with his missing leg.
You sure it wasn’t a dispute about the guy’s tongue?

Yeah, sounds like the episode about the hidden secrets of Hans Sprungfeld - aka Jebediah Springfield, the man with the golden tongue.
…possibly with a memory or two of Lisa the Skeptic (the one with the angel) conflated in there somehow.

See my angel! It’s my angel! No one else’s!
(if you listen carefully, you’ll see that I never actually used the word ‘angel’)
Silver tongue. I always assumed it was a reference to Tycho Brahe .
And then of course his statue plays a part in a couple early episodes, most notably when Bart beheads him.

That was probably it. I just remember being freaked out about a “missing part”, don’t know why I thought leg.

There is no silver tongue, is there Bonesy ?

Keep your laptop’s webcam covered.
It’s a perfectly cromulent episode.
Yeah wouldn’t want a stranger to see you over the webcam and get embiggened by it.
This part makes me think it could be the episode where Marge’s crusade against cartoon violence leads to a boycott of Michelangelo’s David.
However, (A) it’s a Marge-centric episode, not Lisa; (B) David isn’t missing any legs, and (C) nobody digs up a corpse.
In the Lisa the Iconoclast episode, a painting played an important part. Jebediah Springfield had written his confession on the back of the painting of George Washington. I agree with the others that the OP is thinking of this one.

Link added by me.
Just for that, you get to drag the Stone of Triumph.
