This glorious depiction of the coronation of Mary by Jesus Christ is centered in the massive apse in the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome. The pair are dressed in gold, sitting upon a throne in the heavenlies (stars, sun, and moon against dark blue background). Jesus places crown upon Mary; in his left hand a book. Mary's hands are raised in prayer. Throngs of angels on either side with Peter, Paul, and Francis on the left, John the Baptist, John the Evangelist, and Anthony on the right.
