This photograph by Stephen Thompson, taken before 1878, depicts a sculpture of Theseus, a legendary Greek hero. The image is a close-up of the sculpture, which is carved in marble. The sculpture is a powerful and dynamic composition, with Theseus depicted in a heroic pose. The photograph captures the intricate details of the sculpture, including the musculature of Theseus's body and the folds of his drapery. The photograph is a valuable document of a lost work of art.
