Bernini never completely finished Truth Unveiled by Time (1645–1652). This huge 277 cm (109 in) marble sculpture features Truth, allegorically as a naked young woman, already unveiled but for some cloth covering the groin. She holds a sun in her right hand. A winged figure or Father Time was supposed to have pulled the clothes away but it was never completed.
