Description
View looking up at the domed ceiling of the Pantheon in Rome, with light shining through the oculus at the top. "The dome seems to rest on the cornice. The columns in the first register do not the support the dome. It is concrete structure. The coffers in the dome are in perspective, diminishing in size as they rise,"--by Mary Ann Sullivan, Bluffton University.
Measurements
oculus: 29 feet across
