Head of Diadumenos of Polyclitus, a marvellous handmade replica made traditionally by the method of casting plaster, mounted on a marble base. The Diadumenos is the winner of an athletic contest at Olympic games, still nude after the contest and lifting his arms to knot the diadem, a ribbon-band that identifies the winner and which in the bronze original of about 420 BCE would have been represented by a ribbon of bronze.
