The image reveals intricate details such as columns, arches, and building elements that once adorned this magnificent structure. Each element is meticulously preserved despite the passage of time. The roof displays remnants of its former glory while vegetation gracefully intertwines with grass below it. The stairs leading up to the baptistery's entrance evoke a sense of reverence and awe. One can almost imagine pilgrims ascending these very steps in search of spiritual solace during medieval times.
