(032995) Scotti, R. A. Basilica: The Splendor And The Scandal: Building St. Peter's. New York: Viking, 2006. 1st Edition. Hardcover. 8vo. 299 pages. Fine in Fine DJ. 8vo - 8" to 9" tall. 299 pp. B&W Illustrations. Construction of the new St.Peter’s spanned two centuries, embroiled 27 popes, and consumed the genius of the greatest artists of the age--Michelangelo, Bramante, Raphael,and Bernini. As the basilica rose, modern Rome rose with it, as glorious as the city of the Caesars. But the cost was unimaginable: the new basilica provoked the Protestant Reformation, dividing the Christian world for all time ISBN: 0670037761 (Basilica Di San Pie, Vatican City, Buildings)
