"Apollo and Daphne" is a bozzetto, a small-scale preliminary model or sketch, created by the Italian artist Giacomo del Po. This work is a preparatory piece that showcases the artist's initial conception for a larger, more refined artwork. Giacomo del Po, active during the Baroque period, was known for his paintings and engravings that often depicted mythological and religious themes. The bozzetto of "Apollo and Daphne" captures a moment from Ovid's Metamorphoses, where the god Apollo, struck by Cupid's arrow, falls in love with the nymph Daphne. Daphne, in turn, is struck by a leaden arrow that repels love and, to escape Apollo's advances, prays to her father, the river god Peneus, who transforms her into a laurel tree.

Del Po's representation of this dramatic transformation highlights the tension and emotion of the mythological narrative. The bozzetto serves as a testament to the artist's skill in conveying movement and drama in a condensed format, which would later be translated into a larger and more detailed work. The piece is an example of the Baroque fascination with dynamic compositions, expressive figures, and the interplay between the human and natural worlds.

As a bozzetto, "Apollo and Daphne" by Giacomo del Po provides valuable insight into the artist's creative process, allowing viewers to glimpse the preliminary stages of artistic production that precede the final work. It is an important artifact for understanding the methods and techniques used by artists of the Baroque era to plan and execute their grandiose and intricate compositions.
