The Ecstasy of Blessed Ludovica Albertoni by Gian Lorenzo Bernini was executed between the years 1671 to 1674, it was one of his last sculptures. It was installed in the Church of San Francesco a Ripa in Rome on August 31, 1674, where it can currently be visited.
The figure of Ludovica appears reclining, in a moment of mystical communion with God. The folds of his habit, his head tilted back on pillows and the gesture on his face express a state of great embarrassment. The figure sits on its sarcophagus.
