St Aloysius Gonzaga - a photo on Flickriver

            The centrepiece of the altar at the Chapel of St Aloysius Gonzaga is this marble bas relief entitled 'Saint Aloysius Gonzaga in Glory'. The young saint emerges from the relif surrounded by angels and cherubs. It is the work of Pierre Le Gros, one of the most prominent sculptors of Baroque era Rome.

Aloysius Gonzaga died in 1591 at age 23 while caring for the sick during an epidemic. He was from a noble Italian family and had given up his an aristocratic life to become a Jesuit. He was beatified in 1605 and canonized in 1726.
