Grave stele of Dexileos

This grave stele, dating to around 390 Bc, was put up to honour a young man who died in a battle against the Corinthians 394 Bc. The scene is familiar, a young warrior on horseback killing a fallen enemy. Notice the deep relief, the depth tend to increase during the century until the figures stand out from the stone almost completely.
