Part of a series about the emotional life of trees, this piece is inspired by the story of Apollo and Daphne. As the lovestruck Apollo (not shown) pursues Daphne, who is not at all interested in him, Daphne's father, a river god, turns her into a laurel tree. From this moment on, Apollo wears a laurel wreath on his head. The sculptor Bernini created an amazing piece about Apollo and Daphne.
