About the Item

Striking large-scale marble sculpture representing the Discobolus, the iconic Greek figure captured mid-motion as he prepares to throw the discus. Carved in Italy during the 1970s from fine white marble, this piece is inspired by the famous classical sculpture attributed to Myron, celebrating athletic beauty and dynamic form. The sculptor has rendered the anatomy with precision and fluidity, emphasizing tension and balance in the posture. Impressive in scale and presence, the sculpture is ideal for gardens, courtyards, or interiors that draw on classical or neoclassical influence. Dimensions: Height: 70.9 in (180 cm) Width: 43.3 in (110 cm) Depth: 25.6 in (65 cm) Condition: Very good vintage condition. Minor signs of wear consistent with age and outdoor use. Structurally solid and visually powerful.
