Marble Statue of the Apollo Lykeios in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, July 2007
Marble statue of the so-called Apollo Lykeios
Roman, late Hadrianic or early Antonine period, ca. 130-161 AD
Copy of a Greek bronze statue of the mid-4th century BC attributed to Praxiteles
Right ankle and foot, right knee and area above and below, left kneecap and foot, tree trunk, and base are modern restorations
This is a Roman version of a famous statue of Apollo that stood in the Lyceum, a large outdoor gymnasium just outside the walls of Athens. The Roman writer Lucian described the work as Apollo resting after his labors with his right arm resting on his head. This copy was part of a collection of ancient sculpture assembled by the Marquee Vincenzo Giustiniani in the first third of the 17th century in Rome. The stance is somewhat awkward as the legs were restored from numerous pieces.
