Abstract
Description
The entrance to the Papal Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls (Rome, Italy). This image shows the wooden entrance doors to the facility, surrounded by the Pauline Door (Porta Paolina) on the left and right of the photograph. The Pauline Door was decorated by Guido Veroi in 2008 to commemorate the bimillennium of St. Paul's birth. It depicts four scenes, in bronze, from Paul's life. For a brief video about the door, see a YouTube video by Luigi Manfredi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDIc1zRUVwI.
