Votive (?) relief

The relief has the form of a naiskos. The youth in the middle has been identified with Polydeukion, the favourite pupil of Herodes Attieus, who was heroised by his master after he died in his teens. The youth's nudity, the horse, and the snake that he is feeding characterise his as a hero. A young slave holds out his helmet. Behind the slave is depicted a grave-mark, a loutrophoros on a pedestal.

该浮雕采用那伊科斯（naiskos）形制。画面中央的青年已被认定为波吕丢基昂（Polydeukion）——希罗底斯·阿提库斯（Herodes Attieus）最钟爱的门生，他于十余岁夭折后，被其恩师追奉为英雄。该青年的裸体造型、身旁的马匹与他正饲喂的蛇，共同彰显了其英雄身份。一名年轻奴隶正持举头盔侍立一旁。奴隶身后的画面为一座墓标：置于基座之上的礼葬瓶（loutrophoros）。
