The painting of Saint Francis in Ecstasy is considered an exemplary piece for the painting style of the Roman Catholic Reformation after the Council of Trent. It depicts how the body of the Crucified appears to Saint Francis with the wings of the seraphim, while the brown cassock glows under the heavenly radiance.
It is a work by the painter Girolamo Massei, who was born in Lucca in 1540 and died in the same city in 1620. In 1576/77 he was active in the Geographical Gallery of the Vatican, then in the monastery of the Trinità dei Monti and in the church of Saints Nereus and Achilleus. His work is described by Giovanni Baglione in his "Vite de'pittori scultori et architetti" of 1642.
Herwarth Röttgen, to whom we owe today's convincing attribution, connects this painting with the figures of bishops and canons in the apse of the church of Saints Nereus and Achilles, listening to the sermon of Saint Gregory the Great.
