Italy: A copy of the 'Chimera of Arezzo' (the original dating from c. 400 BCE), Arezzo, Tuscany

The bronze 'Chimera of Arezzo' is one of the best known examples of the art of the Etruscans.<br/><br/>. In Greek mythology the monstrous Chimera ravaged its homeland, Lycia, until it was slain by Bellerophon. The goat head of the Chimera has a wound inflicted by this Greek hero. Based on the cowering, representation of fear, and the wound inflicted, this sculpture may have been part of a set that would have included a bronze sculpture of Bellerophon.
