His works often convey intense emotion and movement, making him a key figure in the development of Baroque art. One of his most famous creations is the 聖彼得大教堂 in Vatican City, where he designed the grand 聖彼得廣場 and the stunning 聖彼得的聖像 sculpture. Bernini's influence extended beyond sculpture; he also contributed to architecture and painting, leaving a lasting legacy in the art world until his death in 1680.
