Wellcome Agesilaos! I totally agree that the Riace warriors are two of the best sculptures ever found. Some say they're Fidias' pieces,two of the 12bronze warriors the Athenians dedicated to Delphi for their victory in Marathon( althought ehy dedicated them many years after the battle) But this is only one of the theories. Their arms,helmet and shield were also silver! However,this is not the apropriate thread to post them. This is for modern art concerning ancient Greece. wink:
