Typical of Bernini’s sculptural work, she is turned at an angle and captured in the midst of dramatic change, her tormented face increasing the viewer’s understanding of the narrative moment. While little is known about its creation, some consider Bernini’s use of marble to be a subtle visual pun, using stone to represent a figure known to turn others to stone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pin Museum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48948174389403,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1913\/2769\/files\/1_e224b9c9-44e4-4907-8a37-a26a8447074b.jpg?v=1783618179","url":"https:\/\/thefuturempls.com\/products\/medusa-bernini-enamel-pin","provider":"The Future Mpls","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
