Chapel of the Convent of St. Saba

David Roberts

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a large room with a domed ceiling. The room has a tiled floor with a decorative pattern. There are several people dressed in long robes. Some are standing and some are sitting on the floor. The back wall features a large cross. There are alcoves on either side of the back wall. The walls are decorated with paintings of people. The people are gathered around, some looking at books and some looking at each other. The domed ceiling has a cross on top. The room appears to be a chapel or church interior. The overall scene suggests a place of worship. The image is likely an old illustration based on its style. The artist's signature and date are in the bottom right corner.
