Met photos


   






Bronze Statue of a man- Approximately one-and-a half times life sized, probably held a spear in his right hand. The identity of this figure is still uncertain.







 

 

Polykleitos, Doryphoros- Imposed order on human movement by employing harmonic proportions and creating a system of cross balance of the figure's body.












Geometric krater, from the Dipylo cemetery- One of the
earliest examples of Geometric figure paintings, depicts a mourning scene and a procession in honor of the deceased.
