A pencil drawing of the statue of a prince or dynast without crown, traditionally thought to be a Seleucid prince, maybe Attalus II of Pergamon.
Bronze, Greek artwork of the Hellenistic era, 3rd-2nd century BC, in Palazzo Massimo alle Terme.
The head clearly shows that the artist intended it as a portrait as it is proportionally smaller than the rest of the body.
The figure is represented in heroic nudity and is a copy of a famous statue by Lysippus (371-305 BC) of Alexander the Great.
A pencil drawing of The Doryphoros (Greek : Δορυφόρος “Spear-Bearer") of Polykleitos, one of the best known Greek sculptures of Classical antiquity.
A reconstruction by Georg Roemer created in 1920, unfortunately destroyed in 1944 during WW2.
The renowned Greek sculptor Polykleitos designed a sculptural work as a demonstration of his written treatise, entitled the Κανών (or 'Canon'), translated as "measure" or "rule"), exemplifying what he considered to be the perfectly harmonious and balanced proportions of the human body in the sculpted form.
