  20. Monumento di Santa Caterina da Siena

    attraction

    00193 Rome, Metropolitan City of Rome Capital, Italy

    A statue by Francesco Messina, created between 1961-1962, that creates an unintentional optical illusion known as 'The Holy Kiss'. When viewed from the right angle with St. Peter's Basilica in the background, it appears she is kissing the dome, symbolizing her devotion to the Church. She was a 14th-century nun who influenced the Pope's return to Rome from Avignon.
