Inv. Scu 631

Male statue in heroic nudity. The portrait of Augustus, added later and thus not pertinent, is of the idealized type, with large wide-open eyes and wide, extended facial planes.

The weight rests on the right leg, the left is withdrawn and sideways.

The unbalancing deriving from the displacement of the right hip is compensated by the different arrangement of the arms, with its right arm elongated and away from the body, and the left raised upwards with its elbow bent.

The hair is arranged in three central locks on the forehead turned towards the right, flanked on the right by three that close with a pincer-like motif, and another four on the left turned towards the left.

The work can be dated to the early Tiberian period (14-20 d.C.). It comes from the Albani collection.
