Description

L'església de Sant'Orsola dei Negri és una petita joia del barroc de Palerm , que data de les primeres dècades del segle XVII.

És un edifici religiós únic, profusament decorat per Giacomo Serpotta amb estucs que representen un repertori detallat sobre el tema de la mort, que inclou esquelets i ossos.

La construcció de l'església es deu a la Compagnia di Sant'Orsola , que en aquella època s'encarregava d'enterrar els difunts al terme. Per això l'església rep el nom de 'dei Negri' (dels negres) , pel color de les túnices de la confraria.

L'interior de l'església és ric en elements decoratius preciosos, com ara pintures que representen les Santes Llúcia, Cristina, Àgata, Nimfa, Oliva i Rosalia a les capelles laterals, el gran fresc que representa la Glòria de Santa Úrsula al terrat i els motius expliquen episodis de la vida de santa Úrsula. Entre els grans noms hi ha Pietro Novelli, Gaspare Serenario i el Zoppo di Gangi.
