J. & A. W.. New Church of Il Santissimo Redentore, at Rome, (interior), 1856. View of '...the Church of II Santissimo Redentore, now in course of erection from the designs of [English architect] Mr. George G. [sic] Wigley...The Redemptorist Fathers (an order founded at the end of the last century, by the well-known theological writer, St. Alphonsus Liguori) have lately purchased the Villa Caserta, to make it their head-quarters in the Eternal City, and have added to the existing buildings the church which is the subject of our Illustration. The general dimensions of the church are 200 Roman palms (146 feet) in length, by 70 palms (51 feet) in width, and 70 palms in height. The estimated cost is 18,000 Roman scudi (about £4000). The style of the church is an adaptation of Italian Gothic, of a very simple character, studied from mediaeval buildings at Subiaco and other places in the neighbourhood of Rome'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856.
