Description

Content (description)

A nude youth sits on a high rock and turns to look to his left. On the side of the rock hangs a quiver and in each hand remains a rod, perhaps a bow and arrow originally. His left leg is stretched out, his right foot is drawn back and set on the shell of a tortoise. The statue is viewed obliquely from right.
