Meleager, Roman copy of 4th C. BC Praxiteles original

"A statue of Meleager, one of the heroes of the voyage of the ship Argo. It's a Roman copy of a Greek original from the fourth century B.C., of the famous Greek artist Praxiteles. The statue has lost the head and extremities. This statue was found in Hadrian's baths in Leptis Magna and dates to the second century of the common era."
