Basilica of St John Lateran
petedrob > albums > Italy 2007
Album Info:
The nave has 5 aisles, as is typical of a basilica of this size. They are divived by pilasters - some think that the ancient columns are still here, inside the pilasters The Cosmatesque floor is from the 14th century, a late example of this technique. It was paid by the Colonna family, and completed in its present form in 1425 under Pope Martin V Colonna. The family's coat-of-arms can be seen in sevaral places on the floor.
