works of art

[caroselambra~]

i have recently been to rome for the fifth time in ten years

i am not religious, but am in love with roman architecure and art

when you look at the colosseum, the vatican, the sistine chapel, it takes your breath away

the sistine chapel is a favourite of mine - and here it is in all it's glory

anyone got a favourite work of art they'd like to share?

...or what about the colours in this

a raphael masterpiece from the vatican rooms

you need to click on it to see it in it's full glory

Two more of my favorites (Michelangelo and Bernini):
