A view of Cimabue's 13th Century frescoes on the St. Francis of
Assisi Basilica's vault, during an unveiling ceremony of restored
works, Wednesday April 5, 2006. At top center, the section of the
Basilica's ceiling known as St. Matthew's rib vault. St. Francis
Basilica suffered severe damage in a 1997 earthquake, which sent
thousands of fresco fragments tumbling from the ceiling. The
basilica and its frescoes have since been restored. (AP
