- Abstract
The article presents the life and artistic activity of knight Bernini at the court of king Louis XIV. He was asked to redecorate the facade of the Louvre palace. This artistic French experience of one of the greatest artists of the Italian baroque was mentioned in several memoires of the XVII-th century. One of the sources used in this study belongs to Charles Perrault, because of the originality of his observations. The article analyses the way in which the historical truth is marked and the manner in which the memorialist alters this truth by contrasting Bernini's observations with those belonging to the author.
