Image description

The herma represents a young man with marked facial features. The strong-boned head shows a stern expression. The hairstyle consists of flowing pincers-curled locks on the forehead. It is one of the reproductions of the very famous work by the Greek sculptor Polykleitos, the Doryphoros (spear-bearer), known through sources and several Roman copies of different artistic level. The Greek inscription, engraved on the lower border, reminds that the herma was made by Apollonius of Archia, an Athenian sculptor of the Augustan Age
