Heracles




Heracles, limestone from Kition, ca 470 BC.

I have previously talked a lot about Heracles and finding another statue of him will always make me happy. What's interesting here, in my opinion, is the cloth he's wearing - it reminds me of the one a Kore carries at the national museum. I would however need to have better knowledge on Cypriot art to draw any valid conclusions considering it.
