Do you mean a model of the bacteriorhodopsin (the protein) or a model of the 
bacterium (the organism)? If it's the former, as others have interpreted, my 
advice is to use VMD (<http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/>), which as a 
visualization program that can export to POV-Ray. It can also load 
structures from the PDB directly, just write "1brd" in the file load dialog, 
and it gets fetched from the net.
