Vatican Museum, Vatican City, Rome, Italy
The grandiose trompe l'oeil ceiling of Sant'Ignazio of Loyola Church in Rome, painted by Andrea Pozzo after 1685.
Details of the art on the ceiling in the Vatican Museums
The majestic and stunning frescoed vault inside the church of Sant'Ignazio di Loyola (St. Ignatius of Loyola), in the historic and Baroque heart of Rome. The fresco, depicting the Glory of St. Ignatius, founder of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits), is one of the absolute masterpieces of the Roman Baroque. Painted by the artist Andrea Pozzo in 1685, this fresco almost entirely covers the vault of the church with a perspective representation that, between arches, clouds and columns, increases its space and volumes, effectively creating a virtual reality. The work depicts Christ (in the center) who radiates the figure of St. Ignatius and at the corners the allegories of the four continents known until then. In 1980 the historic center of Rome was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco. Super wide angle image in high definition format.

Rome, Italy - May 12, 2018: The Basilica of the Sacred Heart is located in the Castro Pretorio district, near Termini Station and was built between 1879 and 1887 at the behest of Pope Pius IX who, in 1870, laid the foundation stone of the new building. However, due to the annexation of Rome to the Kingdom of Italy, the work was interrupted; it was only thanks to San Giovanni Bosco that construction could be resumed in 1880 and completed in 1887 by the architect Francesco Vespignani.
