Title: The ideal natural physique
Post by: tweeter on February 27, 2009, 04:19:11 PM
The bronze Boxer of Quirinal, also known as the Terme Boxer, is a Hellenistic Greek sculpture from the first century B.C of a sitting boxer with cestus. It is one of the two unrelated bronzes discovered on the slopes of the Quirinal within a month of each other in 1885, possibly from the remains of the Baths of Constantine. It appears that both had been carefully buried in antiquity. The realism of the portraiture suggests that it is a particular boxer, with a boxer's scars and broken nose, and not a representation of Polydeuces, one of the Dioscuri.

Nope. Not broken. That flattened face/nose visage was once referred to as a 'Roman nose' and was highly prized and thus idealized in sculptures. It's quite common. Marlon Brando was said to have had a 'Roman nose.'
