San Luigi dei Francesi
One of Domenichino's masterpieces, his frescoes of "Scenes of the Life of Saint Cecilia" in the Polet Chapel of San Luigi dei Francesi, was commissioned in 1612 and completed in 1615. Concurrently he painted his first, and most celebrated, altarpiece, "The Last Communion of St. Jerome" for the church of San Girolamo della Carità (signed and dated, 1614). It subsequently would be judged as being comparable to Raphael's great "Transfiguration" and even as "the best picture in the world".
