Many of these athletic poses found in classic statues were indeed inspired by the 1924 Paris Olympics, which served as a significant influence for artists creating stylized male sculptures during that period.

The human form and its physicality, as seen in the athletes’ bodies, were often exaggerated and stylized to emphasize strength, grace, and power. P.

Artists aimed to capture the essence of athletic prowess and the beauty of the human form through their sculptures.
