An interior image depicts the entrance to the Cappella Contarelli (Contarelli Chapel) within the Church of San Luigi dei Francesi in Rome, Italy. Two ornate, open black metal gates, each featuring a grid of vertical bars punctuated by gilded spheres, flank a marble threshold. A female subject, viewed from behind, crosses the threshold into the chapel, wearing a black puffer jacket, blue jeans, and black-and-white sneakers; a maroon bag strap is visible on her left shoulder. Ahead of her, a male subject, also seen from the rear, walks further into the chapel, dressed in a dark jacket and dark pants, carrying a dark duffel bag over his left shoulder. The chapel floor displays a black and white checkered marble pattern. Centrally positioned at the far end is a richly decorated altarpiece. This altarpiece features a large framed painting, *The Vocation of Saint Matthew* by Caravaggio. Above this painting is a smaller, golden sculptural relief depicting *Saint Matthew and the Angel*. The altarpiece structure is flanked by decorative columns and architectural elements. Two rectangular windows with white frames are visible on the side walls of the chapel at varying heights. The upper walls and vaulted ceiling are adorned with frescoes by Cavalier d'Arpino, and a large arched window is situated at the highest point, providing ambient light. Additional, less distinct figures are present deeper within the chapel.
