Detail of the finely crafted head of the bronze statue of a Young Athlete.
This finely crafted statue dates to the first century A.D. Bronze statues from antiquity are very rare—for usually they were melted down and recycled. Marble copies of bronze statues are much more common.
Compare the Bronze Charioteer from Delphi and the Young Athlete from Tralles.
