The Riace bronzes / Warriors are the earliest examples of idealized art. These ancient Greek warriors were discovered in 1972 by Stefano Mariottini while he was diving just off the coast of Riace Marina Italy. Not all the parts were found. They are missing spears, helmets, and shields. These are the earliest known idealized art. There is a lot we don’t know about them; when they were originally made? Are they the first casts, or were others casted? Are they copied from the originals? Who was the artist? Were there two artists? Candidates are Polykleitos, Myron, or Alkamenes. What method do you think was used: manipulation, subtraction, or lost wax? What pose or stance are they in? The contrapposto stance - Italian for counterpose. Riace Bronze
