Before you leave the church, take a moment to enjoy Domenichino's faded 17th-century frescoes of St Cecilia
in the second chapel on the right. St Cecilia is also depicted in the altarpiece by Guido Reni, a copy of a work by
Raphael.

PIAZZA
VIA DEI CORONARI
( Corso del Rinascimento)
Named after the
coronari
(rosary-bead sellers) who used to work
here, this elegant pedestrian street is famous for its antique shops. A lovely, quiet place for
a stroll, it follows the course of the ancient Roman road that connected Piazza Colonna
with the River Tiber and was once a popular thoroughfare for pilgrims.
