Bernini's Ecstasy of St Teresa in Santa Maria della Vittoria is obviously a fake. The real statue lacks a base and it appears that the figural group of St Teresa and the Angel float above the altar in the Cornaro Chapel. The arrow is also pointing in a different direction to that in the actual sculpture (where it points directly at St Teresa's heart after the transverberation).
