In the belltower there are five bells (A, C#, E, F#, A) cast in the 19th century. One of the chapels houses the tomb of painter Andrea Mantegna, with a bronze figure of him, by Gianmarco Cavalli. His chapel has a Hoy Family by Mantegna. Other artworks in the chapels include frescoes of Giulio Romano's school (a work by Giulio is currently a copy) and by Correggio.

Famous quotes containing the word aspects:
“I suppose an entire cabinet of shells would be an expression of the whole human mind; a Flora of the whole globe would be so likewise, or a history of beasts; or a painting of all the aspects of the clouds. Everything is significant.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The power of a text is different when it is read from when it is copied out.... Only the copied text thus commands the soul of him who is occupied with it, whereas the mere reader never discovers the new aspects of his inner self that are opened by the text, that road cut through the interior jungle forever closing behind it: because the reader follows the movement of his mind in the free flight of day-dreaming, whereas the copier submits it to command.”
—Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
