| From 2024 12 22 Rome |
Today's photo-of-the-day is from inside St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City. Just inside the Jubilee Year's Holy Door stands Michelangelo's Pietà, which along with Michelangelo's David, get my vote for most beautiful statues ever made. David for its bravado. The Pietà for its pathos.
"Marble folds like cloth,
a mother cradles her son,
sorrow carved in stone."
