Recommended Coloring Tools

Given the intricate architectural details, such as the Corinthian columns and the statues identifying the facade, this sheet offers a medium-to-high difficulty level suitable for older children, teens, and adults. For the best results, we suggest using:

  • Fine-tip markers or gel pens to handle the small details of the windows and architectural lines.
  • Colored pencils (warm beige, cream, and stone grey) to replicate the travertine stone texture.
  • Watercolors to create a soft, expansive blue sky behind the basilica.
