Image Missing: Hearst Museum object titled Plaster cast, accession number 21-92, described as Cast of head of a boy athlete. From a bronze formerly in the Villa Albani, Rome Glyptothek, Munich

Hearst Museum object titled Plaster cast, accession number 21-112, described as Cast of head of a bearded man, victor in boxing match at Olympia, portrait. It lacks only an olive wreath, which Gerber has restored, and the inserted eyes he imitates. From a bronze found at Olympia, Greece. National Museum, Athens. This is one of the most realistic Greek portraits we have. A work, it is believed, of the 3rd Century B. C., School of Lysippos.

Hearst Museum object titled Plaster cast, accession number 21-113, described as Cast of Athena Lemnia restored by Aldenhoven in accordance with Professor Furtwaengler. From the antique marble in the Royal Sculpture Gallery of Dresden, supplemented by its own head as preserved in the Museo Civico of Bologna. Dresden, Bologna, and Cologne in the Wallrath-Richarts Museum. Consult, on this brilliant effort in constructive archaeology, Furtwaegler’s Masterpieves of Greek Sculpture, Section Phidias. the torsos (for there are two) were recognized as copies of a statue by Phidias by Puchstein. The head passed in Bologna for an Attic Youth, and Professor Kekule clings to that interpretation, rejecting its pertinence to the Athena. Athenian colonists of Lemnos dedicated the statue in 448/447 BC. The rematch (Location column) was done by Professor Adolf Furtwaengler. The restoration follows an intaglio of the bare head, with a helmet set in the field as a key to the identity of the goddess, and a rf. painting of the goddess with spear and helmet. See, for a variant, a small carnelian of our own collection. “Centralstelle fiu Gipsabgusse.”CG. makes a specialty of fine bronzing, and of readaptations of casts in closer conformity with their lost Greek originals--by removal of stumps, etc. He also has a strong selection of molds from mediaeval and Renaissance works. Gold medal at St. Louis. Destroyed in 1989 Loma-Prieta Earthquake. Pieces discarded.
