Chapel of Santa Maria Liberatrice
(Cappella Spada)
The uniqueness of the chapel, which has no comparison with other works made in Rome, lies in the marble cladding that entirely covers the walls, altar and floor and which represents an anomalous case of purely Neapolitan decorative models. On the back wall alternate four vertical bands with vegetal motifs in ancient yellow marble inlaid on a red background and three other vertical bands in Montalto quince alabaster.
