Detail of a praesepio (manger scene) by Arnolfo di Cambio in the museum beneath the Basilica (Hey, being a seminarista gets me discounted admission of 2€!).
Vestments worn by Bl. Pope Pius IX.
My favorite: a receipt showing amounts paid to Giovanni Luigi da Palestrina, once a musician at the Basilica!
J, in front of an old (apparently unused) well in a courtyard in the Basilica

Gashwin,
Loved the photo of the receipt book. Can I convert the values in to 2005 dollars? (Grin).
Sincerely,
