‘the sweetness of this excessive pain’

Rebecca Morgan's 2019 oil on panel painting is a self-portrait after Bernini's Ecstasy of Saint Teresa – that masterpiece of Baroque sculpture portraying the saint's encounter with an angel and his long spear of gold:

“He appeared to me to be thrusting it at times into my heart and to pierce my very entrails; when he drew it out, he seemed to draw them out also, and to leave me all on fire with a great love of God," Teresa of Avila wrote. "The pain was so great, that it made me moan; and yet so surpassing was the sweetness of this excessive pain, that I could not wish to be rid of it.”

Morgan is represented by the Asya Geisberg Gallery.

"I saw in his hand a long spear of gold, and at the iron's point there seemed to be a little fire. He appeared to me to be thrusting it at times into my heart, and to pierce my very entrails; when he drew it out, he seemed to draw them out also, and to leave me all on fire with a great love of God. The pain was so great, that it made me moan; and yet so surpassing was the sweetness of this excessive pain, that I could not wish to be rid of it. The soul is satisfied now with nothing less than God. The pain is not bodily, but spiritual; though the body has its share in it. It is a caressing of love so sweet which now takes place between the soul and God, that I pray God of His goodness to make him experience it who may think that I am lying." - St. Teresa

This Ecstasy of Saint Teresa (Italian: L'Estasi di Santa Teresa or Santa Teresa in estasi) is a famous sculpture by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, a master of the Baroque style, made between 1647 and 1652. It was commissioned by Cardinal Federico Cornaro, a member of the influential Cornaro family, who wanted to glorify his family name and patron saint. It depicts a scene from the life of Saint Teresa of Ávila, a Spanish nun and mystic, who experienced a vision of an angel piercing her heart with a golden arrow, causing her both pain and joy. The sculpture is located in the Cornaro Chapel of the Church of Santa Maria della Vittoria in Rome and is considered by many as one of the most expressive and dramatic works of art in the history of Western civilization.

From Michael Eigen’s Ecstasy

Read this book a long time ago. Today I mysteriously picked it up and opened to this passage about the poet who loves the writings of Saint Teresa just after I finished reading Saint Teresa’s Interior Castle.
