Description

EPHEBE OF MARATHON BUST The Marathon Boy or Ephebe of Marathon is a Greek bronze sculpture found in the Aegean Sea in the bay of Marathon in 1925. The original full size bronze statue is in the National Archaeological Museum of Athens where it is dated to around 340-330 BC. The Museum suggests that the subject is the winner of an athletic competition. With its soft musculature and exaggerated contrapposto, its style is associated with the school of Praxiteles. Some think that it is a representation of Hermes, god of transitions.(01-167-A) Details: Condition: New, Handmade in Greece Material: Casting stone Height: 18 cm - 7 inches Width: 10 cm - 3.9 inches Length: 7 cm - 2.7 inches Weight: 1 kg ********
