Image description

In 1667, Pope Clement IX appointed him to supervise the renovation of the Ponte Sant’Angelo, the ancient bridge linking the city of Rome to the Vatican. Bernini designed ten angels, each carrying an instrument of Christ’s Passion, to stand on the bridge’s balustrades and guide the pilgrim’s approach, physically and spiritually, toward Saint Peter’s. This and 615979 are among the surviving bozzetti (sketches) for the two made by Bernini himself.
