Apollo Belvedere
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
The Apollo Belvedere
This statue was for centuries the most celebrated work of sculpture from the high classical era. The marble statue that now resides in the Vatican is acually a Roman copy of a Greek bronze original that was created between 350-325 BC. Most notable of its features are the smooth form and slim figure that lend a grace and elegance to the youthful depiction of the god.
