MWW Artwork of the Day (5/10/23) Gianlorenzo Bernini (Italian, 1598-1680) David (c. 1623-24) Carrara marble statue, 170 cm. high Galleria Borghese, Rome

When he tackled his David in 1623-24, 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. He subverted the traditional way of representing David. Instead of depicting the static figure after killing Goliath (as had Donatello and Verrocchio) or the measured strain of the act itself (as had Michelangelo), Bernini once again countered with the dynamic charge of the spiral. 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. From the Gladiator derive the feet planted widely apart and the twisting torso.

Twa miłość zawieść nas nie może...

Twa miłość zawieść nas nie może…

Twa miłość zawieść nas nie może…Twa miłość zawieść nas nie może, błogosław nas Boże – słowa tej piosenki chodzą za mną dziś od rana.Cudowny tekst. Czasem każdemu z nas tak się czasem zdarza, że usłyszy jakiś tekst i wydaje się, że drąży w nas i zastanawiamy się nad sensem a czasem nam po prostu w duszy gra, chociaż może to echo gra – jak pisał nasz wielki mistrz mowy polskiej, romantyk Adam. Echo…

MWW Artwork of the Day (11/2/22) Gianlorenzo Bernini (Italian, 1598-1680) Neptune and Triton (c. 1620-23) Marble sculpture, 182.2 cm. high Victoria & Albert Museum, London

Bernini’s "Neptune and Triton" references the mythological characters of Neptune (or Poseidon) and his son Triton, the rulers of the seas. Bernini’s sculpture gives a slightly different representation of the duo.  In Bernini’s sculpture, you see Neptune towering over Triton. He appears to be a man in his early thirties, with a beard and wavy locks. Neptune has his legs spread apart and is balancing on a large seashell that carries both himself and Triton. Neptune only has a large sheet covering his right shoulder and gliding in between his legs, revealing parts of the male anatomy. The anatomy of the entire body is defined and the twisting of his torso gives him a more trimmed outline of his muscles, allowing the viewer to pay particular attention to his muscles and how they are contracted or relaxed in his state of movement. 

For a representative selection of Bernini's work, see this MWW Special Collection: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?vanity=TheMuseumWithoutWalls&set=a.371960352909340

Varia hermaphrodite

Hermaphrodite was born from the love of Hermes, messenger of the gods, and Aphrodite, goddess of beauty. Born as a boy his name is the union of those of both his parents, inheriting the beauty of his parents.

Hermaphrodite Francesco Albani 1578/1660.

Taking advantage of Hermaphrodite's bathing in her spring, the nynph Salmacis drags her to the bottom of the water. Begging the gods not to separate them, his wish was granted. They were thus united in one body, both man and woman.

The Nymph Salmacis and the Hermaphrodite, by Francesco Albani 1578/1660

Hermaphrodite 70-100AD, National Museums Liverpool

Statue of an erect Hermaphrodite, 2nd century, Roman Empire (27 BC-476 AD) Discovery in Monte Porzio, Colonna, Casale Ciufla. Ht;1.50m Louvre Museum

Narcissus, known as Hermaphrodite Mazarin or the Genius of eternal rest 3rd century AD.

The work is the association of the bust of an ancient funerary effigy with the bottom of a body of another statue.

Much admired in the 17th and 19th centuries under the romantic name of Genie of Eternal Rest.

Described in 1661 in the upper gallery of the Palais Mazarin, the work suffered in 1670 the outrages of the Duke of Mazarin 1632/1713 who had emasculated his statues. We can still see the marks of blows.

However, we can doubt this juxtaposition of male and female sex which does not correspond to the anatomy of an ovotestis, a gonad having the characteristics of both an ovary and a testicle.
