Fragmentary Marble Torso of a Man in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Oct. 2007

Fragmentary Marble Torso of a Man in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Oct. 2007

Fragmentary marble torso of a man
Greek, Attic, ca. 450-400 BC

Accession # 19.192.38

The elevated shoulder and turned position suggest that the figure was sitting or partly reclining within the pediment of a temple. Bone, musculature, and flesh are articulated with particular sensitivity and skill.

Text from the Metropolitan Museum of Art label.
