It is worth noting that the scene of the Adoration, to the left of the altar, stands out for the paintings on some of the columns and pilasters. This gives the whole area a classic tone, that can certainly be related to the presence of Roman workers and artists, able to bring together the Byzantine tradition with elements that display a greater freedom, more similar to the style developed in the capital. Although the figures are not perfect, the quick brushwork attempts to represent the movement and the haste of the Magi. The decorations were completed with a somewhat naif intention, although they also display a certain grace.
