Description
The kouros (male youth in Greek) is the most typical statuary type of the Archaic period in Greece. Shown with the left foot forward and arms straight down against the sides of the body, as per Egyptian sculptural models, the statue was an offering to the gods. Sculpted in Naxian marble, the work may have been produced in a Corinthian workshop.
