​Santa Maria della Vittoria ****

3/4/2018

Via XX Settembre, 17
​Hours: 7:00am to noon; 4:00 to 7:30pm

Picture
Built at the beginning of the 17th century by Carlo Maderno with the façade by Soria.

It renowed for Bernini’s impressive Cornaro Chapel dominated by the Ecstasy of St. Teresa. 
​It is amazing for many reasons: a sculpture not grounded but flying, an ecstasy that is spiritual and physical at the same time. The audience, the marble members of the committing family, there, in balconies having a look or depicted while chatting or studying.
