To the right is the altar sarcophagus of the Servant of God Rosina Giovannetti, "The Rose of San Carlo ai Catinari". She was in fact a young parishioner, who gave herself for the conversion of the sinner and the sanctification of the priests, offering her life to God. Seized by a terrible, incurable disease, she gave an example of loving acceptance of God's will and died at the age of 33, esteemed by all as a saint. She was in fact a very worthy cellist at the opera house in Rome.
