| Summary: | The subject of this research is inspired by the discovery of a record of a stained glass window depicting the Vision of St Ignatius at La Storta in the 1876 catalogue of the Museo del Medio Evo e del Rinascimento in Rome. The window was intended for the fifth window of a decorative project on the life of St Ignatius by J. Courtois SJ - from the mid-seventeenth century - in the corridor (later restored by Andrea Pozzo SJ) in the Casa Professa in front of the camerette (small rooms) where the saint lived and died. The article traces the history of the fifth window and its pictorial decoration, which is no longer visible, analysing artistic and historical events, concerning not only the history of the iconography of St Ignatius, but also the history of the Society of Jesus in Rome after the Unification of Italy.
