Vatican, July 03 -- A detailed and perspective view of Bernini's Colonnade with its monumental statues at the top in the square of St. Peter's Basilica, in the historic center of Rome. The majestic colonnade by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, built starting from 1655 under the pontificate of Alexander VII, is made up of 284 Doric-style columns, each 16 meters high, aligned in four rows arranged in a radius. Above each row of columns are 140 monumental statues depicting saints, popes and martyrs of Christianity.
