            Or, which may be of greater interest to the rest of the world, the view up the central dome of Ss Ambrogio e Carlo in Rome. 

This Baroque basilica church is often known as just San Carlo al Corso. The saints it is dedicated to are Ambrose and the cardinal Charles Borromeo (who was canonized in 1610 - the construction of this church began to celebrate his canonization). The dome was made by Pietro da Cortona in 1668 - he also made much of the rest of the interior design.
