THE VATICAN LIBRARY, ROME
One of the richly decorated halls, 220 feet long. This stately hall is not the largest of the library rooms. In the Vatican Palace are 11,000 rooms and halls, and its library preserves some of the rarest and most valuable manuscripts and books in existence; these include a copy of Virgil 1600 years old; a copy of the Bible in Greek 1500 years old
