| Comments: | A vast mosaic of Christ flanked by Leo III [795-816], Charlemagne and Saints including Susanna (martyred 293) was so badly damaged in the 12th century by an earthquake, that the interior was plastered over in the complete renovation that spanned the years 1585–1602 and frescoed by Cesare Nebbia. |
