He is best known for his dynamic sculptures, such as "The Ecstasy of Saint Teresa," which exemplify the dramatic expression and intricate detail characteristic of Baroque art. Bernini also played a significant role in the design of St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City, where his work includes the grand colonnade that embraces visitors. His innovative blending of architecture and sculpture had a lasting impact on the development of Baroque aesthetics.
