Rome, a View of Saint Peter's Basilica

Description: Rome, a View of Saint Peter's Basilica - Print "Rome, a View of Saint Peter's Basilica"William MarlowBehind St. Peter’s and not very well known is a garden. It is a quiet and beautiful place even today, a place of contemplation and calm. William Marlow (1740-1813), an English view painter, visited the spot on his Grand Tour of Italy in 1766. He made many sketches on his trip which he later turned into oil paintings. This one was painted in 1783, long after he had returned to England. The viewpoint is taken from the Via Aurelia Antica looking towards the Vatican Walls and the great dome of the Basilica and, in the distance, the dome of San Carlo al Corso. This panting reminds us of the spiritual calm our Church offers in the bustling and busyness not only of Rome, but also in our own lives.
