Apollo Lyceus' Garden Statue – 150cm
Description:
Bring majestic classical proportion to your grounds with this imposing, near-lifesize mid-20th-century garden statue of Apollo. Standing at an impressive 1.5 meters tall, this reconstituted stone piece is beautifully modeled after the classical 'Apollo Lyceus' form—historically attributed to the ancient Greek master Praxiteles. The youthful deity is depicted in a relaxed contrapposto stance with his right arm draped over his head, leaning elegantly against a rustic tree trunk that holds his quiver of arrows. As an authentic vintage salvage piece rather than a modern, stark white reproduction, it boasts a deeply established, weathered patina. Decades of exposure to the elements have given the stone a wonderful variegated texture with a natural spread of lichens and dark moss accents, ensuring it blends seamlessly into mature gardens, courtyards, or woodland paths. * Material: Heavy Composition / Reconstituted Stone
