Greek tunics not chitons
#8
Giannis wrote In late classical and hellenistic times we see another change on the style of the chiton who resembles roman tunics, but also with no sleeves.


Is this what you have in mind? A marble stele depicting a Macedonian from around 430-420 BC. The "sleeve" detail is good.

I would like to see more of such detail if others can kindly post any iconography.

It has been crisp and cold here since New Year. I fear I have resorted to a sleeved tunic.
