EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Baroque painting "Apollo and Daphne" by Luca Giordano. The oil on canvas masterpiece measures 114.5x133 inches and is currently held in a private collection. Giordano, an Italian artist from the 17th century, skillfully depicts the mythological figures of Apollo and Daphne in this artwork. The scene unfolds on a picturesque shore with a flowing river in the background, adding to its ethereal charm. The painting explores themes of love, opposition, and transformation as it portrays Apollo's pursuit of Daphne. As the story goes, Daphne was transformed into a laurel tree to escape Apollo's advances, symbolizing her desire for freedom over his relentless pursuit. Giordano's attention to detail is evident through his portrayal of both celestial and earthly elements. The sky above radiates with an aureola surrounding Apollo while clouds add depth to the composition. Meanwhile, Daphne stands gracefully amidst lush foliage near the riverbank. This remarkable piece exemplifies Baroque art at its finest – dramatic lighting effects combined with intricate brushwork create a visually stunning narrative that captivates viewers even centuries later. With this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, art enthusiasts can now appreciate Giordano's mastery from their own homes or galleries without commercial use restrictions
