and not of an oil-pourer (wrestler). [1036] Pointed out by Kekulé, _Ueber den Kopf des Praxitelischen Hermes_, 1881, p. 8. [1037] _H. N._, XXXIV, 72; Klein, _Praxiteles_, 1898, p. 50; _id._, _Arch.-epigr. Mitt. aus Oest._, XIV, 1891, pp. 6-9. We have discussed it _supra_, p. 77. [1038] For the _Marsyas_ in the Lateran Museum in Rome, see Bulle, no. 95, and text, pp. 183 f., and Helbig, _Fuehrer_, II, no. 1179. See Brunn, _op. cit._, p. 204. [1039] B. B., 557, text by Sieveking; described also by Furtwaengler, _Beschr. d. Glypt._,^2 p. 313. [1040] F. W., no. 463; _Annali_, LI, 1879, Pl. ST, 3; B. B., 133 (= front view), 134 (right = back view); Furtw., _Mp._, pp. 259-60, _Mw._, pp. 467-8; for list of replicas of this torso, see _Mp._, p. 259, n. 9, _Mw._, p. 467, n. 4. Brunn, _op. cit._, p. 217, thought it a copy of the Munich statue. [1041] One in Turin, F. W., 464; Duetschke, IV, no. 82; two statuettes in the Vatican (Braccio Nuovo), discussed by Bloch in _R. M._, VII, 1892, pp. 93 f.; Helbig, _Guide_, nos. 42 and 44. [1042] Furtw.-Wolters, _Beschr. d. Glypt._,^2 no. 458; Clarac, Pl. 858, 2175; Furtw., _Mp._, pp. 263 f.; _Mw._, pp. 473 f. It is 1.54 meters high. A replica is in the Vatican: see Furtwaengler, _l. c._; we shall treat it later in reference to the statue of the pentathlete Pythokles; Hyde, 70; Foerster, 295; _Inschr. v. Ol._, 162-3; see _infra_, p. 144 and n. 4. [1043] _B. M. Bronzes_, no. 514, on p. 71, and Pl. XVI; _Specimens_, I, Pl. 15; Reinach, _Rép._, II, 91, 7; _Mon. gr._, II, no. 23, Pl. XV and p. 1 (ascribing it to the Argive school). It forms the basis for a mirror. [1044] Furtwaengler, _Sitzb. Muen. Akad._, 1897, II, pp. 129 f. and Pl. 6 (influence of Kalamïs). [1045] _B. C. H._, X, 1886, pp. 393 f. (S. Reinach) and Pl. XII, 3 (this should be numbered XIV, 4; see text); Pottier et Reinach, _Nécrop. de Myrina_, Pl. XLI, 3, pp. 450 f. It is 0.205 meter high. [1046] _E. g._, F. W., 1798; relief found in 1830 in Hermione, now in Athens; it is of the second or third century B. C. [1047] _E. g._, on the stone of Gnaios: _Jb._, III, 1888, pp. 315 f., no. 3; Pl. X, no. 12; Furtwaengler, _Die antiken Gemmen_, 1900, Pl. L, no. 9, and Vol. II, p. 241; also on the gem pictured by Toelken, _Erklaer. Verzeichn. d. ant. vertieft geschnittenen Steine d. preuss. Gemmensammlung_, 1835, Klasse VI, 107 (= _Die ant. Gemmen_, Pl. XLIV, no. 24, and Vol. II, pp. 213); Furtwaengler, _Mp._, p. 260, n. 6, and _Mw._, p. 468, n. 4, who mentions it, believes that these gems correspond more nearly with the Dresden than with the Petworth athlete type. [1048] The strigil was a curved blade hollowed out inside with both edges sharp; the general form remained largely the same from the sixth century B. C., down into Roman days, though the curve and the handle changed. The commonest were of bronze or iron: see Dar.-Sagl., IV, 2, pp. 1532 f., _s. v._ _strigilis_ (S. Dorigny); K. Friederichs, _Kleinere Kunst und Industrie im Altertum_, 1871, pp. 88 f. Examples in the Metropolitan Museum, New York, are given by Richter, in _Gk., Etr. and Rom. Bronzes_, nos. 855 f.; others (strigils and handles) are in the British Museum: _B. M. Bronzes_, nos. 320-326, 665, and 2420-2454, and figs. 74-75, p. 319; on the operation, see Kuppers, _Der Apoxyomenos des Lysippos_, 1874. [1049] _E. g._, on an amphora in Vienna: Schneider, _Arch.-epigr. Mitt. aus Oest._, V, 1881, p. 139, Pl. IV; Hoppin, _Hbk. Attic r.-f. Vases_, I. p. 334, no. 25 and Pl. (right-hand fig.); on a kylix formerly in possession of Lucien Bonaparte, now in the British Museum, E 83: Gerhard, IV, Pl. CCLXXVII, 2 (left-hand figure), and p. 50; Murray, _Designs from Greek Vases_, no. 58; others on which the athlete is cleansing the strigil and not the body are given by Hartwig in _Jh. oest. arch. Inst._, IV, 1901, p. 154 and figs. 178 (Peleus on krater from Bologna), 179 (athlete on B. M. vase mentioned above, E. 83, third figure from left, middle row), 180 (cup in Rome, Museo Gregoriano), 181 (jug, _ibid._); Hartwig, pp. 153-4, mentions an athlete on a cup in the Museo Papa Giulio, Rome. For the motive of an apoxyomenos on a vase in the Louvre, see Hartwig, _Die greich. Meisterchalen_, pp. 24 f. and fig. 2a. [1050] _H. N._, XXXIV, 55, 62 and 76, respectively. [1051] Pliny, XXXIV, 86 and 87, respectively. [1052] A list is given by Furtw., _Mp._, p. 262, n. 2; _Mw._, p. 471, n. 1; a gem from the Hermitage is shown in _Mp._, p. 262, fig. 109; _Mw._, p. 471, fig. 79; = _Die antiken Gemmen_, Pl. XLIV, no. 19; _cf._ also _ibid._, no. 18; Hartwig, in the article cited in note 1 above, adds two more gems showing an athlete in a similar position, in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts: p. 155, figs. 183, 184. Here the youth, as Hartwig against the interpretation of Furtwaengler makes clear, is cleansing the strigil and not his body. [1053] So J. Sieveking, _Die Bronzen der Samml. Loeb_, 1913, Pl. 11, pp. 27 f.; _cf._ _Burlington Fine Arts Club, Cat. Anc. Gk. Art_, 1904, Pl. 50, B. 47, and von Duhn, _Sitzb. d. Heidelberger Akad. d. W._, Abt. 6, p. 9. It is 0.09 meter high. [1054] Von Mach, 235; F. W., 1264; Reinach, _Rép._, I, 515, 6 and 7; _cf._ II, 2, 546, 2; etc. [1055] _H. N._, XXXIV. 65. [1056] _Infra_, pp. 288 f. [1057] Amelung, _Fuehrer_, no. 25; Duetschke, III, 72 (1.93 meters high); B. B., 523-4 (text by Arndt); Bulle, p. 116, fig. 21; _cf._ Helbig, _Guide_, I, pp. 26 f., on nos. 42 and 44 (statuettes); Benndorf, _Jh. oest. arch. Inst._, 1898, Beiblatt, pp. 66 f.; Klein, _Praxiteles_, pp. 51 f.; Furtw., _Mp._, pp. 261-2; _Mw._, pp. 469-71; Bloch, _R. M._, VII, 1892, pp. 81 F., and fig. on p. 83 and Pl. III (head, two views). The right underarm and hand and the left underarm and part of the hand, the vase, and the basis, are all modern restorations. [1058] _Die antiken Gemmen_, Pl. XLIV, no. 17, and text, II, p. 212; _Mp._, p. 261, fig. 108; _Mw._, p. 470, fig. 78; Hartwig, in _Berl. Phil. Wochenschr._, XVII, Jan. 2, 1897, p. 31, corrects the mistake of Furtwaengler and Amelung that the athlete on the gem is cleansing the thigh and not the strigil itself. [1059] Arndt dates it about 400 B. C.; Furtwaengler ascribes it and the Dresden torso of the _Oil-pourer_, already discussed, to an Attic master of the end of the fifth or beginning of the fourth century B. C. [1060] Listed by Furtw., _Mp._, p. 262, n. 1; _Mw._, p. 470, n. 5. Especially the reduced mediocre copy in the Braccio Nuovo of the Vatican: Helbig, _Guide_, no. 45; Clarac, 861, 2183; _R. M._, VII, 1892, pp. 92 f., and fig. [1061] Bulle, no. 60 (who dates it in the middle of the fourth century B. C., and considers it a copy of an original statue); Hauser, _Jh. oest. arch. Inst._, V, 1902, pp. 214 f. and fig. 68; Springer-Michaelis, p. 297, fig. 530; _cf._ _A. J. A._, VII, 1902, pp. 352-3, figs. 1 and 2. It is 1.925 meters high (Bulle). [1062] Babelon et Blanchet, _Cat. des bronzes antiques de la Biblioth. Nat._, 1895, no. 934, p. 411; it is 0.075 meter high. [1063] Discussed by P. Hartwig, _Jh. oest. arch. Inst._, IV, 1901, pp. 151-9, figs. 176 and 177 (four views of statuette), and Pls. V-VI (two views of the head). Without its base it is 0.679 meter high. [1064] It is in the Hamilton Coll.; see _B. M. Cat. Engraved Gems_, 1888, no. 335; _cf. ibid._, no. 432, a cut scarab from the Blacas Coll., representing a nude athlete seated on a rock, holding a lekythos and strigil suspended from the right hand. [1065] Bulle, no. 265; B. B., 601 (text by L. Curtius); H. Pomtow, _Beitr. z. Topogr. v. Delphi_, Pl. XII; Homolle, _Société des Antiquaires de France_, Centennaire 1804-1904, Pl. XII. The figures are life-size (Bulle). [1066] _H. N._, XXXIV, 59: _Hic primus nervos et venas expressit_.
