The Church of St. Louis of the French

Rome, Italy

Bathed in soft, filtered light, the interior of the Church of St. Louis of the French stuns with its intricate gold detailing, soaring arches, and a ceiling that feels more like a celestial theatre than a roof. This is sacred space as spectacle—ornate, overwhelming, and impossibly human in its devotion. Every inch is a testament to beauty and belief, with Caravaggio’s nearby masterpieces quietly waiting to steal your breath just a few steps away.
