About this painting

Princeton's curators trace this whole ceiling to one verse of St Paul's letter to the Philippians, and the sketch shows what Baciccio made of it. It is the working study for the fresco in the Gesù, the mother church of the Jesuits.

At the top, saints and angels bathed in divine light adore the monogram of Jesus, IHS. Below, fallen angels, heretics and vices hurtle into darkness. The eye travels, as the museum puts it, from darkness into light.

Overhead in the Gesù, in the museum's words, the fresco seems to open the ceiling to the sky above.
