Légende

Head of Apollo, (Apollo Sauroctonos), found in Kifissia in Athens. Now at the Benaki Museum. The marble head of the Roman period was probably made in Attica. It is one of the best copies of the famous bronze statue of Apollo Sauroktonos (lizard-slayer) made by Praxiteles in the mid-4th century B.C.
