It was for the Carthusian Convent, called San Martino, at the foot of Fort St. Elmo, then rich, but now converted into a hospital, that Eibera painted his great work of the Communion of the Apostles, twelve Prophets on the windows of the different chapels, and, lastly, the Descent from the Cross, which is almost unanimously said to be his masterpiece. Here we may find, besides the qualities enumerated above, much pathos and expression, and a power of feeling which is not usually to be met with in his works; so that this picture seems to unite to the fiery energy of Caravaggio not only the grace of Correggio, but the religious fervor of Fra Angelico.
