| | Biography |
| | Bernini created the Baroque style of sculpture and developed it to such an extent that other artists are of only minor importance in a discussion of that style. | | | Bernini's late works in sculpture are inevitably overshadowed by his grandiose projects for St Peter's, but a few of them are of outstanding interest. | | | Bernini's career began under his father, Pietro Bernini, a Florentine sculptor of some talent who ultimately moved to Rome. |

| | Hidden symbolism in Bernini's statue of 'David fighting Goliath' |
| | It appears that Bernini saw importance in being familiar with the biblical scenes one is depicting in art, as is evident from his remark regarding the painting of the Crucifixion by Sarrazin [2]. | | | Bernini is said to have given David his own likeness, by sculpturing it while his patron was holding a mirror in front of him as he worked[3]. | | | Bernini chose to sculpture the face of David, resembling his own, since as David in his time - he was facing his first and crucial test - one which if he successfully achieves - will win him too fame for generations. |

| | Artist of the Week: Gianlorenzo Bernini - Stormfront White Nationalist Community |
| | The son of late Mannerist sculptor Pietro Bernini, Gianlorenzo Bernini was destined to surpass his father and become not only the greatest sculptor- architect of the 17th century, but the foremost pioneer of the new Baroque style. | | | It is a mark of Bernini’s unparalleled skill as a sculptor that Daphne’s facial expression seems to simultaneously convey a sense of horror at her plight, alarm at Apollo’s first touch, and shock at her own unexpected transformation. | | | Bernini’s ability to utilize the effects of lighting gave his portrait busts a vitality that would influence artists well into the 18th century. |

| | That Bernini did pay close personal attention to the progress of the work is certified in a contemporary memorandum acknowledging his special services, and those of his father, "day and night, in the heat and rain" over a period of three years. | | | Recreating the moment when Bernini began to assume major responsibilities for the basilica and the Barberini family, the nephew projected the image of a very dependent artist. | | | Strangely removed from the logic of this series is a pen sketch in Bernini's hand retaining the putti who appear to support the canopy from the ribs of the superstructure. |

| | Bernini in his art is the most industrious of Roman artists, and his work tends largely to the baroque. | | | In speaking of Bernini's work as a sculptor it may that in this field the decadence of his art makes itself apparent. | | | Viewed as a sculptor Bernini is at times extreme, without force, theatrical in the pose, affected in details, or over-luxuriant in physical graces. |

| | Born in 1598 in Naples, Bernini was a child prodigy, receiving his early training in sculpture from his father and completing his first bust at the age of ten. | | | Bernini was an astonishingly prolific artist, receiving both sculptural and architectural commissions from royalty across Europe; he also painted and wrote comedies. | | | Admiring his tremendous energy, a contemporary recorded that "Bernini...gave a public opera wherein he painted the scenes, cut the statues, invented the engines, composed the music, wrote the comedy, and built the theater." |

| | Pietro Bernini, Gian Lorenzo's father, must have become acquainted with artists and other personalities of Naples, as his "amicissimo" was the abbot of the S. Martino monastery. | | | Thus Bernini's creative genius was inspired by the theological and aesthetic ideas of his time - of which, however, he made his own personal interpretation. | | | In a choice between the Mannerist treatises of Lomazzo and Federico Zuccaro or Bellori's theory of the "idea", Bernini must have felt closer to the first two, which were much in vogue during his apprentice years and which satisfied his inner need to define art in terms of the Christian faith. |

| | David by BERNINI, Gian Lorenzo |
| | When he tackled his David in 1623-224, Bernini knew that he was risking comparison with works in a sculptural tradition that included the great names of the artistic culture of the Italian Renaissance, from Donatello to Verrocchio and Michelangelo. | | | It is well known that he took his inspiration from the so-called Borghese Gladiator, now in the Louvre but at the time one of the prize pieces in Cardinal Borghese's collection. | | | All the strain that has been built up shows in David's face, a self-portrait that was executed with Cardinal Borghese's assistance, for he volunteered to hold a mirror up to enable the twenty-five-year-old Bernini to complete his work. |
