Words hardly suffice to say how wonderful the picture and its story are.

Very neat. Thank you for all the helpful description (and the Hawthorne quote!). Must be really remarkable to see in person.

Yes, I saw it in high school and it is one of my strongest memories from Rome. I Hope to go back some day, but it probably won’t be any time soon.

What a fantastic work of art. You have complemented the beautiful art with a fantastic description in words and a sensitive contemplation of the vision.

I love the 360 tours! They really give you a better idea of how works are supposed to be presented. With little kids, the 360 views are probably the closest I’ll get to this kind of art any time soon haha
