"The Angel with the Crown of Thorns" is a renowned sculpture by the Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini, a leading figure of the Baroque period. Created as part of a series commissioned for the Ponte Sant'Angelo in Rome, the work was designed around 1667 but was executed by one of Bernini's pupils, possibly Giulio Cartari or Paolo Naldini, under the master's supervision. The series was intended to adorn the bridge leading to Castel Sant'Angelo, with each angel holding an instrument of the Passion of Christ.

Bernini's "Angel with the Crown of Thorns" stands out for its dramatic expression of the Baroque style, characterized by dynamic movement, emotional intensity, and intricate detail. The angel is depicted in a moment of serene contemplation, holding the crown of thorns with a delicate yet poignant touch, which reflects the theological significance of Christ's suffering and the angel's role as a bearer of the Passion symbols.

The sculpture is a testament to Bernini's skill in capturing the subtleties of human emotion and his ability to imbue his works with spiritual depth. The angel's graceful pose, the fluidity of its drapery, and the lifelike quality of its features exemplify Bernini's mastery of marble and his innovative approach to sculptural design.

Today, the "Angel with the Crown of Thorns" remains an iconic example of Bernini's artistry and a significant piece of religious art. It continues to draw admiration from both art enthusiasts and religious pilgrims, contributing to the rich cultural and artistic heritage of Rome. The original sculpture is now housed in the church of Sant'Andrea delle Fratte in Rome, while a replica stands in its place on the bridge, allowing the public to engage with Bernini's vision in its intended context.
