    _______________________________________
    Gian Lorenzo Bernini (7 December 1598 - 28 November 1680) was an Italian sculptor and architect. While a major figure in the world of architecture, he was, also and even more prominently, the leading sculptor of his age, credited with creating the Baroque style of sculpture. As one scholar has commented, "What Shakespeare is to drama, Bernini may be to sculpture: the first pan-European sculptor whose name is instantaneously identifiable with a particular manner and vision, and whose influence was inordinately powerful...." In addition, he was a painter (mostly small canvases in oil) and a man of the theater: he wrote, directed and acted in plays (mostly Carnival satires), also designing stage sets and theatrical machinery, as well as a wide variety of decorative art objects including lamps, tables, mirrors, and even coaches. As architect and city planner, he designed both secular buildings and churches and chapels, as well as massive works combining both architecture and sculpture, especially elaborate public fountains and funerary monuments and a whole series of temporary structures (in stucco and wood) for funerals and festivals.

    I visited the Cornaro Chapel in Rome with the Ecstasy of St Teresa when I was 18, really a profound experience - like walking into another world. The sculpture itself has this "visionary" effect, I don't know how to explain it, but it's as if you're looking at it through heat waves, or a dream haze. It's actually carved that way. It has this kind of energetic "flow" in the composition of the figures and especially the drapery, as if everything is made of flame. You can see it in the photographs.

    When I bought a ticket to enter the Villa Boghese, I only knew that there was an art gallery there. When I came across Apollo and Daphne, I was awe struck. My first question was how on earth did he get the sculpture to balance? It looks as if it should fall forward. And then the details . . . It is a beautiful piece. Then I saw the Rape sculpture. I’ll never forget how he made the marble, flesh. Years later I went back to Rome for a short stay. But by then I was familiar with Bernini. So I went to see Saint Theresa.
    Thank you for the artistic and sensitive approach to this video. I love seeing the closeup photography of the works. Also that there is just enough dialogue to introduce us to the work, and then silence.

    The Baldachin was made from the bronze lining of the portico of the Pantheon. The Pantheon was perhaps the most famous ancient structure because of its remarkable level of preservation. This “Upcycling” of an ancient artifact was controversial in its day.

Imagine people calling police in a time like now, when someone would let his 4 year old kid work on blocks of marble with hammer and chisels! 😂

    You have to respect Michelangelo because when he was on his work surpassed the sublime but Bernini was always sublime and his greatest works matched Michelangelo's. La Pieta is imo the most beautiful marble sculpture of all time and David is about 5 but the other 8 in the top ten are all Bernini.

HOW(rhetorical). Create a statue that is anatomically correct, with 2-3 figures, in dynamic motion, intertwined and realistic. The fingers that appear to squeeze the marble as they would in reality is, in itself a wonder.

    the talent and genius of Bernini is underrated.
    His sculptures leave everyone for dead, including Michelangelo (btw, David's hands are very disproportionate), although the Pieta is beautiful.
    The clever Fontana di Quatro Fiumi at Piazza Navona doesnt get a mention?
