Museum of Cycladic Art, Athens.

I'll write some details soon, but did you know that there are male Cycladic figures too! They are very rare.
At the entrance of the museum.
First try of human shape.
U shaped.
Violin shaped.
Long enigmatic face.
The eyes were protected because of the original paint.
Fancy a cup of tea ? Very rare statue with a prominent arm.
Different arms stands.
Yes, I'm a boy.
Having a rest. Very rare position for a statue.
A mother handing her kid ?
A hunter with a horizontal dagger on the waist.
A lion in the center and running preys around.
Bronze.
Mr and Ms Sphinx. A deadly couple.
Sphinx, Egyptian style.
Nice head shaped vase.
Boar, duck, swans.
