Artist's Description
This bronze sculpture of the sea god Poseidon was recovered from a sunken ship near Cape Artemision, in northern Euboea. It is slightly over lifesize at 209 cm, and would have held either a thunderbolt, if Zeus, or a trident if Poseidon. Dated c.150-140 BC. The statue is completely nude and is yet another depiction of the ideal male figure that the Greeks were so interested in. Discovered in 1926 not much is known about the wreck because exploration was abandoned when a diver died in 1928, and was never resumed. Many such shipwrecks are of Roman date and were of vessels looting Greek art to Italy, but it is unclear whether the Artemision wreck is one of these.
