Posted by Adam Busiakiewicz:
The Spanish Embassy to the Holy See have loaned their two famous busts by Bernini to the Vatican Museums for a special exhibition. The two works, depicting the Blessed Soul and Damned Soul, will be the focal point of a display prompted by the current Pope's interests in combining faith and culture. Funds raised by the sales of their catalogue will be donated to help victims of the recent flooding in Spain.
The display will run until 31st January 2025.
