Bernini and the gold necklace

Bernini is greatly honoured that the Pope visits his house and even gives him a gold necklace. However, when Gian Lorenzo and his sons walk through Rome to take the Pope’s gift to the bank, it only takes a moment of inattention and the necklace gets stolen.

But with the help of the Queen of Sweden and Lucio the gardener all ends well. Of course, with a grand festival … Besides the story you’ll find lots of information on: The life of Gian Lorenzo Bernini and the Baroque period.
