Art

Hey fellow adventurers! Last post I talked about landmarks, but I purposefully left out artwork. There are so many beautiful pieces in Vatican City, that I felt it deserved its own post. I’ll display some of the most famous works held in Vatican City below and the name of the artist. I won’t go into detail though. If you want to learn more about any, or all, of these pieces, I highly encourage you do some research! Art history can be fun!

The Last Judgement

The Sistine Chapel Ceiling by Michelangelo

Pietà by Michelangelo

Laocoön and His Sons by Agesander of Rhodes, Athenodoros of Rhodes, and Polydorus of Rhodes

St. Jerome in the Wilderness by Leonardo da Vinci

St. Peter’s Baldachin by Gian Lorenzo Bernini

Chair of Saint Peter by Gian Lorenzo Bernini

School of Athens by Raphael

Oddi Altarpiece by Raphael

The Parnassus by Raphael
