This early 3rd century fresco on a tomb in the catacombs of Santa Priscilla is the earliest known depiction in art of the Madonna. I took this photo from a postcard since there is a prohibition from taking photos in the catacombs. The remaining photos were taken at the catacombs, but they are few in number.
The only photo I was able to take inside the catacombs. It is of us celebrating morning Mass. |
The second most popular destination at the catacombs is the men's room! |
