Gian Lorenzo Bernini
Apollo and Daphne, marble sculpture by Lorenzo Bernini, 1622–25; in the Borghese Gallery, Rome.
Following the death of Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the Baroque style he helped establish was carried on for two generations by several architects across Europe.1
In Rome, his style was continued by Mattia de’ Rossi and Carlo Fontana. Beyond Italy, his influence extended to Austria through the work of Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach and to Bavaria, where the brothers Cosmas Damian Asam and Egid Quirin Asam continued to develop the style.1
