| 説明 | Apollo and Daphne was completed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini in 1625, when he was only 27 years old.It depicts the myth of the nymph Daphne escaping the advances of Apollo by transforming into a laurel tree.The leaves are so fine that when struck with a tool, the marble makes a sound like crystal glass.From Ovid's Metamorphoses:"As Apollo relentlessly chases Daphne—boasting, pleading, and promising everything. When her strength is finally spent she prays to her father Peneus:"Destroy the beauty that has injured me, or change the body that destroys my life." Before her prayer was ended, torpor seized on all her body, and a thin bark closed around her gentle bosom, and her hair became as moving leaves; her arms were changed to waving branches, and her active feet as clinging roots were fastened to the ground—her face was hidden with encircling leaves.Even like this Apollo loved her and, placing his hand against the trunk, he felt her heart still quivering under the new bark. He clasped the branches as if they were parts of human arms, and kissed the wood. But even the wood shrank from his kisses, and the god said:"Since you cannot be my bride, you must be my tree! Laurel, with you my hair will be wreathed, with you my lyre, with you my quiver. You will go with the Roman generals when joyful voices acclaim their triumph, and the Capitol witnesses their long processions. You will stand outside Augustus's doorposts, a faithful guardian, and keep watch over the crown of oak between them. And just as my head with its uncropped hair is always young, so you also will wear the beauty of undying leaves." |
