_Apollo-on-the-Omphalos_ in Athens (Pl. 7B);[1258] the athlete head from Perinthos (Fig. 33);[1259] the bronze copy of the head of the _Doryphoros_, found in Herculaneum and now in Naples, by the Attic artist Apollonios (Fig. 47);[1260] the Ince-Blundell head in England, to be discussed; four heads in Copenhagen;[1261] the remarkably beautiful bust of an athlete in the Metropolitan Museum, New York (Pl. 20), whose rounded skull, oval face, projecting lower forehead, and dreamy, half-closed eyes place it in the fourth century B. C., a work influenced by the art of Praxiteles.[1262] [Illustration: PLATE 20 Head of an Athlete, School of Praxiteles. Metropolitan Museum, New York.] When we consider heads of gods and heroes we find the swollen ears on a variety of types. We see them on the so-called _Borghese Warrior_ of the Louvre (Fig. 43),[1263] formerly called a _Gladiator_, and on the marble statue of Kresilæan style in Munich, which has been known since Brunn’s interpretation as _Diomedes_ (carrying off the Palladion from Troy) (Pl. 21).[1264] This latter statue is a careful, though inexact, Hadrianic copy of a famous work and is shown to represent the hero, and not an athlete, by the mantle thrown over the arm. Skill in the boxing match, the roughest and most dangerous of sports, is as appropriate to _Diomedes_ as to Herakles himself. The crushed ears appear on the Dresden replica of this statue, a cast from the Mengs collection, the original of which was once probably in England,[1265] but do not appear on the poor copy in the Louvre.[1266] They also appear on the Myronian bust in the Riccardi Palace, Florence, which is a copy of an original that was, perhaps, the forerunner of the Kresilæan _Diomedes_.[1267] Here again the garment thrown over the left shoulder shows that a youthful hero, and not an athlete, is intended.
