In the context of Bust of Costanza Bonarelli, explore the Clothing of the Style.
The Bust of Costanza Bonarelli was an artwork that introduced numerous elements from the Baroque style; the bust feels light weighted, and the hair and clothing exude a presence of energy and life. Bernini managed to portray some good qualities in creating the bust, such as adding the clothed drapery on the subject. Other than The Bust of Costanza Bonarelli that was created, Bernini has incorporated similar drapery work to several other sculptures as well.
One example that has a similar emphasis towards drapery work would be The Bust of Charles. The Bust of Charles was another sculpture that not only emphasized drapery work, but the drapery also had more detail within the folds as well. The arrangement of this bust's clothing seems to give the subject more life, making the figure of the bust look more realistic.
