Doryphoros Herma

This is a so-called Doryphoros of Polykleitos is one of the best known Greek sculptures of classical antiquity, depicting a solidly built, muscular, standing warrior, originally bearing a spear balanced on his left shoulder. Rendered somewhat above life-size, the lost bronze original of the work would have been cast circa 440 BCE, but it is today known only from later (mainly Roman period) marble copies. The work nonetheless forms an important early example of both Classical Greek contrapposto and classical realism; as such, the iconic Doryphoros proved highly influential elsewhere in the ancient art.

这件常被称为波利克莱托斯（Polykleitos）《持矛者》（Doryphoros）的作品，是古典古代最广为人知的希腊雕塑之一。作品塑造了一位体魄健硕、肌肉发达的站立战士，原作中其左肩搭有一支保持平衡的长矛。该作品尺寸略大于真人，其已佚失的青铜原作约铸造于公元前440年，如今仅能通过后世（主要为罗马时期）的大理石复制品知晓其原貌。尽管如此，该作品仍是古希腊古典时期对偶倒列（contrapposto）与古典写实主义的重要早期范例；作为标志性作品，《持矛者》在古代艺术的其他领域均产生了深远影响。
