Bernini Colonnade at Saint Peter Square in Vatican. Traveling in Rome during the Jubilee Giubileo year 2025

The Doric order was one of the three orders of ancient Greek and later Roman architecture; the other two canonical orders were the Ionic and the Corinthian. The Doric is most easily recognized by the simple circular capitals at the top of columns. Originating in the western Doric region of Greece, it is the earliest and, in its essence, the simplest of the orders, though still with complex details in the entablature above.

Vatican, July 03 -- A detailed and perspective view of Bernini's Colonnade with its monumental statues at the top in the square of St. Peter's Basilica, in the historic center of Rome. The majestic colonnade by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, built starting from 1655 under the pontificate of Alexander VII, is made up of 284 Doric-style columns, each 16 meters high, aligned in four rows arranged in a radius. Above each row of columns are 140 monumental statues depicting saints, popes and martyrs of Christianity. St. Peter's Basilica, built between 1506 and 1626 in Renaissance and Baroque style, is the center of the Catholic religion and one of the most visited places in the world for its immense artistic and architectural heritage, with works of art by Michelangelo, Raphael, Gian Lorenzo Bernini, Pietro da Cortona and other famous artists. In 1980 the historic center of Rome was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco. Image in high definition format.
