Asklepios stands with weight on I. leg, r. leg bent, I. hand on hip. His head was turned slightly to proper r. He wears sandals with closed heels; a cloak falls over his I. shoulder, is drawn across both hips and held by I. hand, leaving most of torso bare. The cloak also falls over and conceals a support at back. On cloak at r. hip is the break from a strut to support arm and staff, the end of which is preserved with snake, near r. foot. Plinth is straight at front, oval at back.
Traces of stop-and-go drill almost entirely obliterated, except one visible under armpit, but very straight drill-type folds. The back is summarily worked with shallow diagonal folds.
The figure is a paraphrase on the early classical Dresden Zeus. This example is a very smooth Hadrianic copy.

Cat. 74 (Fig. 190).Head and r. arm below shoulder missing.
