Description
This kouros, originally from the east pediment of the Temple of Apollo at Delphi, is badly damaged. There were originally two other kouroi accompanying this one, which are now lost. They would have been mirrored by three korai, the female equivalent of kouroi, on the opposite side of the pediment. This statue seems to follow the very traditional kouros pose with its left leg slightly forward and its hands at its side, even though it was a later work.
