• Resumen

  • Within the wider framework of current research on the early history of St Isidore�s College, Rome, this article explores the relationship between Giovan Pietro Bellori, the famous antiquarian, art theorist and biographer of artists, and the Irish friars at St Isidore�s. It was Bellori who already in 1652 suggested Carlo Maratti as the painter to be chosen to decorate St Joseph�s chapel in the friary church. One year later, Bellori became Apostolic Syndic of the College, a position he held until at least 1683/84, according to archival sources. In compliance with his last will, he was buried in the friary church in 1696.
