Apollo and Daphne (1622–1625) was the last special sculpture Bernini completed for Cardinal Borghese’s private collection. From certain angles from the rear, only Apollo is seen — it appears as if Daphne is already just a tree. Also from the rear, Apollo’s cape sometimes seems to form an odd roll but only a slight step to the side reveals the material fantastically flying in the wind quite at odds with the natural stiffness of white marble.
