Angel with Cross Statue Details Show
The angel in the statue holds a cross, and her face is peaceful, with serenity and solemnity. The angel’s wings are spread out, the details are fine, the feathers are realistic, and the smooth lines and folds show the sculptor’s high skill. The angel’s clothes fly in the wind, adding a sense of movement.
The Story Behind the Angel with Cross Statue
The cross, of course, represents the cross Christ had to bear in Jerusalem, where he was ultimately crucified. The angel with cross statue looks like a relief on a two-dimensional surface, rather than a three-dimensional sculpture without boundaries. The wings are on the same plane as the rest of the sculpture. Ferrata worked with Bernini and Antonio Raggi on the construction of the Chigi Chapel in the Santa Maria del Popolo. He follows Bernini’s sketch of the sculpture well but reduces the size of the cross held by the angel.
