Clytia the Sea Nymph

Clytie was a sea nymph who fell in love with the sun god 'Apollo'. However when Apollo deserted her,
she was changed into a sunflower and was forever destined to turn her head towards the sun as it moved east to west each day (looking for Apollo perhaps).

The first bust of painter George Frederick Watts 1817-1904 on loan to V&A Museum - London from Tate Galleries.
