Description
The details of St. Anthony's entrance from the bottom of the picture upwards are: (to either side of the statue) large glassed windows; the statue of St. Anthony is in the center; immediately above is a recessed walkway; above the walkway is an open balcony extending the width of the church. The rose window and side windows are along the balcony. In this picture is one of St. Anthony's seven domes, in addition to the small tower at its front.
