"Apollo and Daphne, after Bernini" by Stefano della Bella is an etching that captures the dynamic essence of Gian Lorenzo Bernini's renowned Baroque sculpture, "Apollo and Daphne." Created in the 17th century, this work of art serves as a testament to the influence of Bernini's sculpture on his contemporaries and the enduring fascination with classical mythology during the Baroque period.

Stefano della Bella (1610–1664), an Italian printmaker known for his etchings, was adept at translating the three-dimensional qualities of sculptures and the vivacity of life into the two-dimensional medium of print. In "Apollo and Daphne, after Bernini," della Bella meticulously depicts the moment from Ovid's Metamorphoses where the nymph Daphne is transformed into a laurel tree to escape the amorous pursuit of the god Apollo. The etching showcases della Bella's skill in rendering the intricate details and the dramatic movement characteristic of Bernini's original marble sculpture, which was completed in 1625 and is housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome.

The artwork not only reflects the technical prowess of Stefano della Bella as an etcher but also serves as a visual record of the artistic dialogues between sculptors and printmakers during the Baroque era. By disseminating the image of Bernini's masterpiece through prints, della Bella contributed to the wider appreciation and recognition of the sculptor's work across Europe. The etching remains an important piece for the study of Baroque art and the interplay between different artistic mediums during the period.
