toward the then rich Order of White Monks of S. Bernard. It remained theirs until 1492, when it passed to the crown again. It pre- serves its original nave and aisles of the twelfth century, and three terminal apses ; its mosaics^ however, have entirely vanished. Two or three effigies of the Teutonic knights (fif- teenth century) are of interest. If we return to Via deW A lloro Digitized by VjOOQIC 36 SICILY and turn R, down it, we reach Chiesa della Gancia (1430), with a fine cloister, some fi...ne reliefs by Gagini, good choir- stalls; and in 2nd chapel R, * Virgin of Monserrato,* by Antonio da Palermo (1518). In the choir are * Marriage of the Virgin' and 'Nativity' (with portrait of the painter), by Anemolo, Here broke out the Revolution of i860, and the convent was brutally looted by the Bourbon soldiers.
