Description
The Greek epitaph engraved on the sculpture’s base gives us a hint of the name of the deceased and year of death. The man appears sitting, this is a non-conventional position for this kind of sculpture in Eastern cultures. The image that this posture transmits is one of an important and respectable man in the community.
