Vatican Sunset
As the sun retreats and the shadows encroach upon the Vatican, St. Peter’s Dome reaches emits a burnished glow. On this evening, Vatican City is quiet, but several times a year, the Pope will emerge from the central balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica to address thousands of devoted Catholics to pronounce blessings upon all who hear.
This painting is the perfect blend of physical beauty and sacred history. When hung upon your walls, it will arrest the eyes and capture the heart of the visitors to your home.
In the very 
beginning of his artistic career, Thomas Kinkade put his entire life savings into the printing of his first lithograph. Though at the time he was already an acclaimed illustrator, Thom found that he was inspired not by fame and fortune, but by the simple act of painting straight from the heart, putting on canvas the natural wonders and images that moved him most. It was this dedication and singular-minded focus on the ultimate goal of Sharing the Light™ that made Thomas Kinkade, a simple boy with a brush from the small country town of Placerville, California the most-collected living artist of his time. full artist biography
