I am pleased to see that you have been impressed by the Discobolo "Lancellotti" at Palazzo Massimo, a masterpiece of art history so much that it has become a symbolic image also of sport and the Olympics. He is thought to have been depicted in the Greek Euros at the modern Olympics in Athens.
Persino Hitler was struck on his 1938 Roman journey by so much beauty to the point that he bought it (or maybe he made the price?) and took him to Germany...

Very true, it would also have been interesting to see the original bronze made seven centuries earlier, without taking anything away from this marble masterpiece.

Mirone's original must have been breathtaking, but let's talk about a work made 2500 years ago! Let's settle for this "copy" discovered only 150 years ago...
