The counterfaçade has a large dedicatory tablet over the main entrance, describing the foundation of the church by Cardinal Ludovisi. It is accompanied by stucco allegorical statues of Glory and Religion, and above is the cardinal's shield with a pair of putti. Two more putti are holding onto swags of flowers embellished with ribbons. All this is by Alessandro Algardi, 1650.
