Descripción
This shallow relief shows Artemis, Leto, Apollo and a winged Victory or Nike by an altar, with a temple in the background. A choregos in ancient Greece was a citizen who had the honour of paying for dramatic productions in the theatre. Prizes were awarded to the choregoi deemed the best. Nike represents victory, Apollo was the musician god, and Leto was his and Artemis’s mother.
The poses of the gods and their drapery imitate the early Archaic Greek style. This ‘archaising’ was popular among Roman artists and sculptors, especially in the first century BCE.
