Faves for this Web page
love this statue - learned about this statue back when took art history.
the story goes (from what my professor told me) this statue represents a boxer from back in the day (hellenistic period).
the statue shows the boxer has a broken nose, his hands are rapped with metal plates and nothing else, and that it shows the boxer waiting for his next opponent. the boxing during the hellenistic period was/is much different from what they are today. two men would enter - the winner would stay in the ring and the next opponent would enter.
