...and filled the crypt
up to the ceiling.

Rough seas and high tides remain a

1:28:10

Now, if you follow me, we shall begin
the visit of the basilica...
1:28:24
...from this altar.
1:28:26
It was dedicated to the Madonna
and finished in 1617.
1:28:33
Above the altar, you can admire
the Madonna of Nicopeia...
1:28:37
...the renowned
and highly venerated icon...
1:28:40
...which was brought here
from Constantinople in 1204.
1:28:47
There are more than 40 iconographies
of the virgin in St. Mark's.
1:28:51
She welcomes you
at the threshold of St. Peter's...
1:28:54
...and the chapel of St. Clement.
1:28:58
And she is repeatedly
portrayed in the crusades...
1:29:04
My God.
1:29:07
Do you wish to confess,
my daughter?
1:29:10
Bob!
1:29:21
- Quick. Come on.
- I'm so tired.
1:29:23
You can rest later.
Come on, quickly.
