The nave, St Peter's basilica, Vatican City
Not sure how I caught this looking so empty. It was very near closing time, but minutes earlier there had been plenty of people about. Sculptures and frescos are everywhere, and overwhelming. The church is gargantuan in scale and it is difficult to imagine worshipers achieving a personal sense of communion with their god.
Sculpture gallery, Vatican Museums
The sculpture galleries are full of gorgeous pieces, though sadly one cannot get close - the guard rails define the route. Unfortunately, our tour whizzed us through at a trot, but in the circumstances lingering would have been difficult anyway.
Gallery of Maps, Vatican Museums.
The maps gallery is just fabulous - for the maps, their colour and their astonishing accuracy despite primitive methods of compilation - and for yet another beautiful ceiling!
