- Tanım
The lion skin tied on the chest is summarily rendered on the back like a cloak. Crude abrasive is used. R. arm was raised, l. lowered. Surface at hips very smooth, with round drilled hole (W. 0.009; D. 0.007; narrower hole within, D. 0.007), showing that lower part was pieced on.
Remarkably exaggerated “Pergamene-Rhodian” Laokoon-type muscles. Possibly advancing with club raised in r. hand and r. leg forward. If a Roman copy, the workmanship is excellent; a late Hellenistic (120-50 B.C.) original is not impossible.
- Condition
Bluish gray, densely (medium) grained marble with white, yellow, and bluish gray alternating.
Neck to hips preserved. Both arms missing.
