Description:
|
The first nave chapel on the right-hand side is the Capella Chigi, created for Agostino Chigi, the 16th century banker. Raphael began by executing the wall fresco in 1514, but died before the chapel was finished, and work was possibly continued by Sebastiano del Piombo. The fresco is of four Sibyls, those of Cumana, Persia, Phrygia and Tiburtina, each receiving a revelation from an angel. However, the chapel itself and the wall surfaces flanking it were decorated in the Baroque restoration supervised by Pietro da Cortona. This work was completed in 1667. The altarpiece is a bronze relief of The Deposition by Cosimo Fancelli. Flanking it are kneeling statues of SS Catherine of Siena and Bernardine. Timoteo Viti, a pupil of Raphael, painted the four Prophets Habbakuk, Jonah, David and Daniel above the main fresco. (Source: Churches of Rome Wiki [website]; http://romanchurches .wikia.com/)
