This church was undergoing restoration when I visited Rome back in May. It's Santa Maria dell'Orazione e Morte (Prayer and Death) . . . |
which may explain this symbolism that appears in multiple places on the façade. [To see more churches from around the world, go here.] |
The exterior so bathed in sunlight; and the blue sky and greenery. The jarring contrast between life and death is not unlike that found here.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking that a visit to the church might not be the most romantic first date. But then it depends on the couple.
Great shot
ReplyDeleteVery nice, the headstop is very unusual, normally see them on memorials
