"St. Therese of Avila" is a notable marble sculpture created by the Italian artist Filippo della Valle in the 18th century. Della Valle, born in Florence in 1698 and active during the Baroque period, was renowned for his refined and elegant sculptural works. This particular piece is a representation of Saint Teresa of Ávila, a prominent Spanish mystic, religious reformer, author, and theologian of the Carmelite Order, who was later canonized as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church.

The sculpture of St. Therese of Avila exemplifies della Valle's mastery of form and his ability to convey spiritual intensity and the subtleties of human emotion. The artwork captures the saint in a moment of divine ecstasy, reflecting the influence of the Counter-Reformation and the Catholic Church's emphasis on mysticism and piety. It is a testament to the period's artistic focus on dramatic expression and the inner spiritual life of religious figures.

Filippo della Valle's St. Therese of Avila is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and religious implications during the time it was created. It reflects the broader context of the Catholic Church's response to the challenges posed by the Protestant Reformation and the subsequent Catholic Counter-Reformation, which sought to reaffirm the importance of the saints, the authority of the Church, and the value of religious art as a means of inspiring faith.

The sculpture is an important piece within della Valle's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of Baroque art and its role in religious expression. It remains an object of study for art historians and enthusiasts interested in the Baroque period, religious iconography, and the interplay between art and spirituality in the 18th century.
