A young driver stands calm in a long pleated tunic, reins still in his hand, after a chariot victory at the Pythian Games. He once rode in a bronze chariot with horses, dedicated to Apollo by Polyzalos, tyrant of Gela in Sicily. Buried under rockfall, probably in the earthquake of 373 BCE, he is one of the few Greek bronzes to survive.
Look closer
He keeps his inlaid glass eyes, a rare survival. The deep pleats of his lower tunic fall straight, like the fluting of a column.
