Seated Man
(Roman Empire )
This statue of a seated man has the right foot added in a different stone. The fingers of the right hand and the left hand are to be added. There are holes in the right hand, and iron dowels in the left.
This piece was historically attached to a marble head which was inset. The head, which did not belong, was removed (see Walters 23.205). The front of the base had been restored. This was removed as well.
