Discophorus

The Discophoros, also spelled Discophorus, (Greek - Discus-Bearer) was a bronze sculpture by the classical Greek sculptor Polyclitus, creator of the Doryphoros and Diadumenos, and its many Roman marble copies. Like the Doryphoros and Diadumenos, it was created as an example of Polyclitus's canon of the ideal human form in sculpture. It features a young, muscular, solidly-built athlete in a moment of thought before throwing a discus. This copy is a lead statue displayed outside of the Wilkins Building, at the heart of the UCL Bloomsbury campus' main quad (London, England). This object is part of Scan The World. Scan the World is a non-profit initiative introduced by MyMiniFactory, through which we are creating a digital archive of fully 3D printable sculptures, artworks and landmarks from across the globe for the public to access for free.
