That is inside the Capuchin catacombs in Palermo. It's an interesting place.

Italy is high on my list of places to visit, particularly Rome & Florence. I would love to visit the Vatican and some of those thousand year old churches. During my trip to Israel 8 years ago I saw some great examples of early christian churches and really enjoyed them, particularly the intricate carvings and the like. I really dig that stuff.

There is a cathedral in Monreale, which is a small suburb of Palermo inside which the upper half of the walls in the main room are covered with gold leaf. In that gold leaf is engraved pictures that tell the story of the entire New Testament. It's amazing to see.

I have in a round about way tried to get reaction to this on CB. I haven't used the President Samuelson's name or All American as the poster. You know how things can get over there and I don't see any point in denegrading either Cecil or All American.
I am surprised though at the lack of opinions. Maybe I am too subtle. Still better than using names that were in this original post. |
