The grand architectural dome of St. Peter’s Cathedral in Vatican City is framed by an open window in the Vatican Museum, with intricate details visible in the sunlight. The structure's classical design contrasts with the simple interior view from which it is admired.

The structure's classical design contrasts with the simple interior view from which it is admired. This is the best and closest view you can get of the dome of St Peter’s! #rome #vaticancity #vatican #stpeters #church #basilica #cathedral #dome #architecture #window #view #historic #classical #ornate #BuyIntoArt #AYearForArt #artforsale #wallartforsale #giftideas @joancarroll https://joan-carroll.pixels.com/featured/st-peters-basilica-through-the-window-joan-carroll.html

Today we explored the Vatican, and wow, what an experience! Usually, I find that places like this are overhyped and don't live up to expectations, but the Vatican completely blew me away!

Every corner we turned revealed something breathtaking and awe-inspiring. I was genuinely amazed by the beauty and history all around us!

St Peter’s Basilica interior: expansive view of the ornate golden dome, Latin inscriptions, and the grand central baldachin altar, with crowds of visitors scattered across the marble floor below.
Ornate interior of St Peter’s Basilica featuring Bernini’s baldachin with twisting bronze columns, under a richly decorated dome with Latin inscriptions. A congregation sits in rows, observing the ceremony, surrounded by statues and gold-accented architectural details.
Gallery of Maps, Vatican Museums: a crowded hallway with a richly painted and gilded vaulted ceiling, depicting historical Italian maps and adorned with intricate frescoes.

“Double helix”

The Bramante Staircase is a double helix staircase in the Vatican Museums. Wrongly attributed to Donato Bramante, this staircase was designed by Giuseppe Momo in 1932, inspired by an older one actually designed by Bramante. This staircase is a double helix, that is to say it has two staircases, one to go up, and one to go down. So no one crosses each other in the opposite direction.

Assembly in Photoshop of 5 photos (to remove a maximum of people) taken freehand (tripod forbidden).

Heu­te Sight­see­ing abseits des anti­ken Zen­trum. Als ers­tes neh­men wir uns die Vil­la Borg­he­se vor. Anders als der Name sug­ge­riert ist das kein Haus son­dern einer der gros­sen Parks der Stadt. Urspüng­lich ein Renais­sance­gar­ten, spä­ter zum eng­li­schen Land­schafts­gar­ten umge­stal­tet (mit medi­ter­ra­ner Bepflan­zung), zieht es an Tagen wie heu­te alle dort­hin: die Läufer*innen, die Men­schen mit Hund (ohne Lei­ne, obwohl eigent­lich Vor­schrift, aber – vgl. ges­tern – mit den Vor­schrif­ten hat man es hier nicht so), ein paar Rad­fah­ren­de und jede Men­ge Spaziergänger*innen.
