Synopsis
Excerpt from The Colour of Rome: Historic, Personal, and Local
St. Peter's and the Vatican are subjec'ts of whicheit is almost vain to attempt to give more than the Colour - they are so immense that any attempt to describe them exhaustively must fail. For St. Peter's, all one can do is to try and bring out its spaciousness and majesty, and the part it plays in the life of the world.
