then and now
2005: "
People fill Via Della
Conciliazione boulevard about half a mile away from the facade of St.
Peter's Basilica at the Vatican after Pope John Paul II's body was
carried across the square into the Basilica for public viewing on April
4, 2005. With tens of thousands of mourners outside hoping for a glimpse
of the body, 12 pallbearers flanked by Swiss Guards carried the late
pontiff's body on a crimson platform from the Sala Clementina, where it
had lain in state since the previous day.
