Chapel of St Elizabeth of Portugal
The decoration is not original, but was done between 1789 and the closure of the church by the French. The architect was Francesco Navone, who provided a coved altarpiece with two ribbed Ionic columns in red and white portosanto marble supporting an entablature with the frieze in the same stone and a triangular pediment.
