The image displays the interior of the Oratorio di San Carlo Borromeo, located within the Chiesa di Sant'Agostino in Como, Italy. The scene is characterized by a high, domed ceiling featuring ornate stucco work, classical motifs, and frescoes in earth tones of cream, beige, and terracotta. A hexagonal skylight at the dome's apex emits a distinct yellow light. White sculptural putti are visible on ledges beneath the dome, one on the left and one partially visible on the right. At the rear of the chamber, a dark wooden reredos, adorned with classical architectural elements and intricate carvings, stands beneath a small, arched window. In front of this reredos, on the altar, is a contemporary art installation. This installation comprises two large, concave, gilded wooden elements, resembling open wings or shells, from which several dark, serpentine or tentacle-like forms extend. Below this artwork, on a lower dark wooden altar table, several lit candles are present. The front surface of this altar table exhibits significant wear with peeling dark paint, revealing a lighter material beneath, and features a stylized cross. The lower walls of the oratorio are paneled with dark wood, forming what appear to be choir stalls or pews, contributing to the dimly lit foreground. No individuals are present in the scene.
