Description
St. Mark’s Basilica is the cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Venice, Italy. It is the most famous of the city’s churches and of the best-known examples of Italo-Byzantine architecture. Ground was broken on the church in 978 and completed in 1092.
This mosaic depicted here is a scene called The Last Judgment, or Day of Resurrection, that has replaced the original that was centuries old and had to be replaced. The subject, however, has not changed. It depicts Christ rising to Heaven with the cross, also depicted are the Virgin Mary, John the Baptist, the Apostles, Saints, and Angels.
