Bronze statuette of a nude youth
The stance, nudity, and hairstyle of this fine bronze remind one of large-scale kouroi, the famous commemorative statues of youths set up in Greek sanctuaries and cemeteries. The Etruscan artist focused more attention on the facial details and less on musculature than Greek artists typically did. The figure once held an object in his right hand.
