In 2004, the Cleveland Museum of Art acquired ostensibly the only surviving bronze original by this sculptor, which unusually features an asymmetrically-limbed python.
In 2004, the Cleveland Museum of Art acquired ostensibly the only surviving bronze original by this sculptor, which unusually features an asymmetrically-limbed python. This man pioneered a form in which a sculptural subject's body makes a more dramatic S-curve than slight weight shift of contrapposto, examples of which include his sculpture of a youth leaning against a tree and preparing to stab a climbing lizard. The courtesan Phryne was supposedly this man's model for a statue in which a goddess in a namesake "pudica" pose drops her clothes onto a water jug while preparing to bathe. For 10 points, name this ancient Greek sculptor of Apollo Sauroktonos, Aphrodite of Cnidus, and Hermes with the Infant Dionysus.
