Explanation:
Giovanni Battista Gaulli´s presented one of his greatest breakthrough painting work with the Triumph of the Name of Jesus enhancing dramatic illusionism in a three dimensional frame adding fortress stucco molding around the fresco which highlights the upward and downward movement of the souls scrolling vertically and horizontally over the viewers upward into the endless heaven providing depth past the actual ceiling.
