The Ecstasy of St. Teresa of Avila is a masterpiece created by Gianlorenzo Bernini, a famous Italian sculptor of the Baroque period, completed between 1647 and 1652. Located in the Church of Santa Maria della Vittoria in Rome, this sculpture depicts the mystical experience of St. Teresa – she felt the love of God in her soul.

Details of the The Ecstasy of Saint Teresa
The details of the sculpture are extremely fine, and Bernini brings the expressions and movements of St. Teresa and the angel to life through skillful manipulation of light and shadow and sculpting techniques. St. Teresa’s face is full of divine ecstasy, the angel’s movements are extremely graceful, and the whole scene is set off by exquisite drapery and light effects that make it seem like a dream. These details not only demonstrate Bernini’s skill but also profoundly express the mystery and intensity of the religious experience.
