His design, especially the dome, known for its complexity and optical effect, is considered a masterpiece of the Baroque. The project was finally completed by Antonio Bertola in 1694. After a fire that severely damaged the structure in 1997, the chapel underwent a long and complex restoration that ended in 2018, when it was reopened to the public.
