La Cappella Corsini - Silk Magnificent and solemn, the Corsini Chapel in San Giovanni in Laterano boasts an elegant profusion of marble, stucco work, gilt bronze, and paintings that were executed by a select team of artists. A classical masterpiece in late-Baroque Rome is the mausoleum that Pope Clement XII built for his aristocratic family, crowning a lifetime devoted to the Gospels and to Art.
