Warrior in Armor

The armored man stands frontally; his left arm, now missing from the elbow, seems to have been held down at his side, while his right arm is extended at waist level; the right hand is missing. The man has short, straight hair. His facial features are large, particularly his eyes and ears. The left eye is slightly higher than the right and the upper and lower eyelids are modeled; the pupils are indicated by small circular depressions. The warrior’s neck is short and thick. He wears a cuirass over a short tunic. On the upper portion of the cuirass are three zones of closely placed vertical lamellae separated by horizontal bands. His shoulders and upper back are covered by additional padding. A double row of broad rectangular fringe (pteruges) appears below the cuirass, and a section of his tunic covers his body to the upper thighs. The legs are fully separated, with the right leg locked, and the left leg forward and slightly bent. The feet are missing. The musculature of the exposed arms and legs is naturalistic.
