He also added three statues full of charm; one of the Deliverer, which he placed at the column of the bell tower on the right hand side of the high altar; another of St Jerome which he moved to the left column, standing from the place of Christ; the third of St Anne, he positioned in the chapel nearest to the large doorway of the temple, where the prospect is to the north.

{. . .} Advexit quoque statuas tres admodum venustas; unam Servatoris, quam columnae turris campanarum ad summi altaris dextram adjecit; alteram divi Hieronymi, quam sinistrae columnae e regione Christi stantem admovit; tertiam vero divae Annae, in sacello proxime ad portam majorem templi, qua parte est in septentrionem prospectus, reposuit. {. . .}
