Cosimo Fanzago (1623), creator of its refined Baroque appearance; and Nicola Tagliacozzi (1723), who managed to combine architecture, painting and sculpture in a way that reflects the distinctive taste of the Rococo.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Over time, highly renowned artists worked for the Carthusian monks: among the painters were Ribera, Battistello Caracciolo, Lanfranco and Luca Giordano;
