Abstract
This image shows a unique angle of the Naxos Kouros, laying horizontally in a quarry on Naxos. The Kouros is fundamentally geometrical and was most likely not completed by the artisan that sculpted it, as evidenced by the extremely basic and simplistic indications of body parts.
Description
This image was digitized and added to Dlynx by the Visual Resources Center during summer, 2023. The metadata was created by students enrolled in Dr. Miriam Clinton's Greek Art classes. The student cataloger's name can be found in the dc.contributor.advisor field.
