Doryphoros


Closing with a Roman copy of Doryphoros, The Spear Bearer.  This work was an early example 
of contrapposto—a pose where the figure's weight rests on one leg while the other leg
 is relaxed, creating a natural shift in the hips and shoulders

  1. I could study and admire these pieces for hours if I were to see them in person. It would be a perfect day. Thanks Jerry.
