The 360 photo shows the Chapel of St Catherine, "Cappella di Santa Caterina" that was originally built in 1540 as a separate church. The photo opens in particular toward the fresco of the Martyr of St Catherine, "Martirio di Santa Caterina", Bernardo Lanino's masterpiece (1512-1583). The chapel is currently a part of the famous church of St Nazaro Maggiore, one of the four basilicas founded by St Ambrose, "Sant'Ambrogio".
