Tips

🇧🇪 Herwig Aertbeliën

September 6, 2024

Commissioned by Vittorio Amedeo II, it was begun in 1716 and completed in 1729. Juvarra designed majestic volumes for the sacred building, arranged around a bevelled Greek cross, with two large altars on the sides of the transept and four circular and polygonal chapels on the inside and the outside, placed on the diagonals.

The numerous sumptuous decorations enrich the clever contrasts of light inside, making the environment truly unique.

The real ‘radiant protagonist’ of the chapel is the main altar, the work of Giovanni Baratta, which seems to float, almost framed by the beam of light that forms the background for the tabernacle, supported by marble angels. The altar develops vertically and places itself between the two central columns of the basin created by the apse.

The light, which enters abundantly through the high windows behind it, emphasizes the irregular shape of the altar and multiplies its shades and colors.
