Pierce me with your arrow of love
The Ecstasy of St. Teresa
Bernini 1650 something or another
I love this sculpture for the faces, the calm delight of the angel with the arrow about to relieve the panting straining anticipation of St Teresa (as evidenced by her orgastic expression) I love religious art that parallels the divine penetration with a more carnal one.
