The Warm Golden Color

This is an interior picture of the Chiesa della Sacra Noma di Gesu (Church of the Sacred Name of Jesus) in Rome.  
It is the founding church of the Jesuit Order, and it is just amazing.  Because the dome lantern contains yellow glass, 
when the sun comes through in the afternoon, it turns the whole interior a warm golden color.  Bellissimo!!

  1. CORRECTION. Please note the correct Italian name of the church:

    "La Chiesa del Santissimo Nome di Gesù all'Argentina"
