DescriptionThe Motya Charioteer, made by a Greek sculptor in Sicily, about 460-450 BC, found in 1979 on the Sicilian island of Motya (Mozia), Winning at the ancient Games, British Museum (7642744838).jpg
Marble from Greece or Turkey.
This is a very rare surviving example of an original Greek victor statue. The athlete stands in a confident pose, raising his right arm probably to place or adjust a victor's wreath on his head. The wreath would have been metal attached to the head by pins. The statue is renowned for its remarkable touches of realism, such as the way the fingers of the left hand press into the hip and pull the fine fabric.
