Abstract

The study presents, within the artistic relations between Italy and France during the Roman High Baroque and the context of the diffusion of the Teresian Carmel design, which the most important maestros of the day were working on, the links between Bernini’s “Ecstasy of Blessed Ludovica Albertoni” which hangs in the Altieri chapel of the Church of San Francesco a Ripa in Rome and the “Transverberation of Saint Teresa” etched by Guillaume Valet for one of the great series dedicated to the saint of Avila in the sixteenth century.
