B. Schedoni - Madonna with Child and Saints

It is situated in the ancient tower, the Oratory was built by Alessandro Sanvitale in 1688 and dedicated to San Carlo Borromeo. A testimony is the altar-piece of Antonio Nasini which represents the Saint Cardinal who anointed the plague.
There is also Bartolomeo Schedoni’s fresco (Formigine of Modena 1570-PR 1615) realized between the 1609 and 1610, which represents the Virgin, the Baby and Saints Giuseppe, Chiara, Francesco, Giovanni Battista.
The altar in marble is beautiful and it’s contemporary to the construction of the Chapel attributed to Alberto Oliva.
