The Strangford Apollo
Dublin Core
Title
The Strangford Apollo
Subject
kouros
Description
It was once thought that all kouroi represented Apollo. While all are Apollian, or representative of many excellence, beauty, and goodness, the identity of each kouros is dependent on context and attributes held. This particular statue is a later version of the kouros, though it still has many elements of earlier kouroi. For example, its abdomen muscles are still delineated with straight, surface-level lines.
