The apse fresco, depicting Christ in Glory with the Madonna and St Joseph and the marriage ring, while below are Saints Agnes, Lucy, Francis of Assisi, Sebastian, and kneeling the donor D. Salvatore Luzi, was completed in 1890 by Domenico Bruschi. In the background is a view of Guardea at the time.[1]
