St. Petkh's, Bomr. 



The fouiHlation stone of St. Peter"s, in Home, was laid on the loth April. 1500, in the 

 presence of 3.") cardinals. The ceremony of consecration was perfoi'iue<l by Pope Urban VIII. on 

 November, 1()26, the l,:50iitb anniversary of the day on which St. Sylvester is stated to have 

 consecrated the original editicc. By the end of the seventeenth century the cost of building the 

 cathedral had amounted to ujiwards of £9,40U,00<i, and the present cost of maintenance amounts 

 to about £7.500 ])er annum. The new sacristy, erected by Pius V., cost about tlSO.OitO. The 

 result is that St. Petei-"s is the largest and most imjiosing. if not the most beautiful, church in the 

 world. Its area is about IN.OUI) scjuare yards. T"he facade is ]'S.\ yards long and 1(55 feet high. 

 It is surmounted by a lialnstrade, with statues 1!) feet high of several of the Pojtes : the inscri]ition 

 reconls that it was erected by Paul V., in 1612. The ]H)rtico. the ceiling of which is magniticently 

 decorated, is 78 yards in length, 14^ yards in witlth, and GO feet in height. The interior of 

 the cathedral is strikingly imjiressive, and this effect is produced not so much by the vastness as 

 by the harmony and symmetry of its proportions. The magniti(^ent and plainly decorated dome 

 rests on four huge buttresses 234 feet in circumference, the nicdies in whiidi are occupied by statues 

 Ifi feet high. Al)ove tliiMu are the four loggie of Bernini, in which the greatest relics are exhibiteil 

 on high festivals, on which oc"asion the loggie may be entered by none but the canons of St.
