This marble statue is a Roman copy of the 2nd Century AD of a Hellenistic original of about 200-150BC. It was discovered in the temple of Apollo in Cyrene. In this elaborately carved figure, the iconographical features of both Apollo and Dionysos, the wine-god, have been fused; the slipping himation and the sensual treatment of the flesh are typical of Dionysos, while the kithara and quiver characterise Apollo.
