The Conversion on the Way to Damascus (Conversione di San Paolo) is a masterpiece by Caravaggio painted in 1601 for the Cerasi Chapel of the church of Santa Maria del Popolo in Rome. Across the chapel is a second Caravaggio painting (1600) depicting the inverted Crucifixion of St. Peter. On the altar is a luminous and crowded Assumption of the Virgin Mary by Annibale Carracci. The dome frescoes are by one of Carracci’s apprentices under his design.
