1indsey:As far as favorite classic artists go mine is Gian Lorenzo Bernini. I tried to stray away but I just couldn’t, Bernini is fucking awesome. This is my favorite work by him and my favorite detail. It’s Apollo and Daphne and I saw this when I went to Italy and it was one of two works that made me literally bawl. (The other was David by Michelangelo, duh) I had to walk through the Galleria Borghese three times because I couldn’t leave this. The toes of Daphne are my favorite detail and I stared at them the first time for probably ten minutes, I kid you not. The picture obviously does not do them justice because this sculpture changed my life. -- source link
