Estatua de un joven de Antikythera, Grecia


This larger-than-life bronze youth was fished up near the Greek island of Antikythera (along with the amazing Antikythera mechanism) in 1900. He was cast about 340 BCE, probably by Euphranor. He originally held something in his right hand, perhaps an apple. He has a prominent acroposthion and a visible corona.
