Vambraces - possibly a reason for their use
#6
Indeed, there being no representational evidence at all makes it a dodgy area. But I am only talking about maybe a few in a hundred, tops.

However, athletes wear supports if needed, but they don't pose for publicity photographs wearing them ... posterity and all that, which is similar to grave stele.

Press photos are a different thing altogether, but I can't see a 1st. C sculptor catching the moment quite quickly enough :? Monuments are also for posterity of some type and another, so can't be called 'documentary' either, as with murals really (even though they can sometimes offer more everyday subject matter).
