“Apollo and Daphne” is one of the most famoust marble sculpture by Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini, executed between 1622 and 1625. The orginal is housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome, Italy.
Daphne is being pursued in a chase by a love sick Apollo, and just as she is running out of strength she cries out to her father, the river god, to change her form which has caused this problem. The nymph is then transformed into a laurel tree, saving her from her pursuer.
The Apollo and Daphne statue depicts the scene in which Apollo has just caught up to Daphne and reaches his arm around her waist. At the instant that she feels his touch, her body starts transforming into a tree. Apollo observes this transfiguration, and in his expression, one can see his momentary elation being broken by the shock of seeing the subject of his love turning into a tree.
