Today is the third installment in a series on art in and around Rome. After spending several weeks touring Europe I had a stiff neck from staring up at ceilings in The Vatican Museum, Cathedrals, Palaces and Basilicas. This was the inspiration for this week's Sunday Art Review: Ceilings of the Vatican and Beyond. These photos are mainly from the Vatican Museum, but others are from Monaco, Montenegro, Croatia and Malta. Sadly I didn't catalog these photos, so I have very few details to share. So I beg your forgiveness for being a total Philistine, and will ask you to just enjoy the photos without any credits or notations. (Maybe Olivia will come to my rescue once again). These are truly works of art:
To think that all the work was done by hand, in painstaking detail, it is mesmerizing and truly an inspiration. Thanks for stopping by this week's Sunday Art Review.
