COMMENTARY

UNDERLINED TERMS ARE DEFINED IN THE GLOSSARY.

After returning to Rome in 1610, Mochi assisted Mariani and, a year later, stepped in to complete several commissions for Santa Maria Maggiore that had been left unfinished at Mariani's death. In 1611 he was engaged in the Cappella Paolina to carve the statue of St Matthew.
