Limestone torso of a hunter
Roman, Imperial period, 1st or 2nd century AD
Accession # 20.191
This figure of a hunter, thrusting his spear as he lunges forward, was probably part of a sculptural group that must have shown at least the animal he attacks. Other men and dogs could also have been included in a hunting scene that was very popular in both the Hellenistic and Roman periods.
Text from the Metropolitan Museum of Art label.
