Description
This kouros was found at the Asklepieion, or temple of the healing god Asklepieos, at Paros. The statue is missing its lower legs and right arm. It has very broad shoulders and a wider waist. The hair is held back from the child-like face with a thin headband. The statue's remaining arm is bent slightly at the elbow, but still ultimately conforms to the typical pose of the kouros, with its fist clenched at its thigh.
