Oil Pourer

The Oil Pourer is a lost Greek bronze of an athlete variously associated with the circle of Lysippos, c. 340-330 BCE, of which Roman marble copies exist, notably in the Glyptothek, Munich (illustration) and in the Albertinum, Dresden. Another well-known Roman replica is conserved at Petworth House. There is a head of this type at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. The Oil Pourer is similar in proportions and manner to the Lysippean Agias of which there is a Roman marble copy at Delphi.
