Wounded Amazon

Fine Art Photo Print

Description

This statue of a wounded Amazon, from a Greek original by Phidias, with the head a replica modeled on an Amazonian head by Polykleitos, can be seen in the Capitoline Museum. This statue was heavily restored. What looks like a bow may, perhaps, have been a spear. Against her right leg is a typical Amazon shield, behind which is the distinctive ax these valiant warriors used in battle.
