EDITORS COMMENTS
The Basilica of St. Paul, built on the tomb in the Cemetery of Lucina, is a magnificent sight that captures both history and spirituality. This 1833 etching with brown wash by Agostino Tofanelli showcases the grandeur and architectural beauty of this iconic structure. Engraved by Pietro Fontana, this print from the Recueil des vues au bister dessinees et lavees par Callimachus takes us back to ancient Rome, reminding us of its rich cultural heritage. The basilica's location at San Paolo fuori le mura holds great significance as it was rebuilt after being destroyed by fire in 1823. According to Christian tradition, it was here that Roman matron Lucina buried the body of Saint Paul in a vineyard. The image depicts an interior view filled with saintly figures praying and kneeling amidst towering columns adorned with patriarchal Corinthian capitals. The fluted arches and majestic nave create a sense of awe-inspiring splendor. This engraving not only showcases the remarkable architecture but also highlights the presence of monks and papal figures within these sacred walls. It serves as a testament to their devotion and dedication to preserving religious traditions. The Basilica of St. Paul stands as a symbol of faith, resilience, and reverence for centuries-old beliefs. Its timeless beauty continues to inspire visitors from around the world who seek solace in its hallowed halls.
