About This Item
MapQuest.com. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1991. Deluxe; First Impression. Full-Leather. 0870448587 . Deluxe leather bound edition. Red leather with gold design. This lavishly illustrated guide through the Vatican captures the people, the treasures, and the inner workings of the center of the Roman Catholic Church. Bart McDowell takes readers through centuries of Vatican history, describing the days of the Roman Empire, the glorious years of the Renaissance, the power struggle between Church and State that endured from the late 7th century until 1929, and much more. Photographer James L. Stanfield spent nearly a year inside the Vatican with unprecedented access to its museums, ceremonies, and people. His full-color photographs show art that few visitors to the Vatican have the chance to see-works of such masters as Michelangelo and Raphael-and provide private viewings of Pope John Paul II's quarters, the necropolis beneath St. Peter's Basilica, and world-renowned libraries. (Editorial Review) ; Photographs, Illustrations; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 232 pages .
