  The main altar has a fresco by Francesco Curradi, with flanking canvases by Giovanni Antonio Sogliani depict the Visitation. Previously a Crucifixion with Saints Nicola and Francis painted by Fra Angelico stood here, but now in sacristy. Other frescoes are by Pieter de Witte and Giuseppe Servolini. The ceiling is frescoed with theLife of St Niccolò by Giovanni Domenico Ferretti.
