Cherub Holy Water Font at St. Peter's Basilica


The sculpture of Cherub Angels holding the Holy Water Font at St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican City, ROME.

          This is one of a pair of beautiful marble fonts for holding holy water and used in baptisms. It is found at the beginning of the central nave. The basin is carved out of amber colored marble and complemented by a graceful drape of gray-black marble. The basin is flanked by a pair of intricately sculpted Baroque cherubs in white marble. It is located in the Basilica of Saint Peter's - Vatican City, Rome.

A short break

A group of street performers taking rest at Cologne Cathedral, Germany.

“Activity and rest are two vital aspects of life. To find a balance in them is a skill in itself. Wisdom is knowing when to have a rest, when to have activity, and how much of each to have. Finding them in each other - activity in rest and rest in activity - is the ultimate freedom.”

The Blue water

Taken at a beautiful beach in Porto Santo Stefano, Italy.

Every time I stand before a beautiful beach, its waves seem to whisper to me: If you choose the simple things and find joy in nature’s simple treasures, life and living need not be so hard.
