Description:
|
The chapel in the left transept has a marble altarpiece of the Annunciation by Filippo Della Valle, with allegorical figures and angels by Pietro Bracci, and a frescoed ceiling with The Assumption by Andrea Pozzo. Cametti's monumental Annunciation altarpiece in Turin remained a touchstone of late Baroque reliefs, and when the younger Florentine sculptor Filippo della Valle created the large relief of Annunciation for the altar opposite Le Gros' St Aloyzius Gonzaga in Glory, he paid Cametti the compliment of revising his work in line with mid-eighteenth-centu ry expectations.
