Fragment of a Hound

#stele #classicalgreeksculpture classicalgreekart

I rather miss we had all of this stele!

What we have shows a hound or small dog apparently adoringly looking up at its master.

The sculptor has contrasted on the pose and time has eroded some of the detail but the position of the dogs head looking up ... just exquisite even in its incomplete damaged state.
