I'm standing in front of my name sake. The statues in this churh are huge. The twelve niches created by Borromini's architecture went empty for decades till in 1703 when Pope Clement XI encouraged the completion of the decoration, by sponsoring a competition to select the designs for larger-than-life sculptures of the apostles. A committee established led by Carlo Fontana and Carlo Marratti, selected from among the most prominent late baroque sculptors in Rome, including: * Camillo Rusconi Andrew Matthew James the Greater John the Evangelist * Francesco Moratti Simon * Angelo de' Rossi James the Less * Giuseppe Mazzuoli Philip * Lorenzo Ottoni Thaddeus * Pierre-Étienne Monnot Peter Paul * Pierre Le Gros the Younger Bartholomew Thomas
