Bacchon in his Cape ?

There is a character in #Plutarchs #Amatorius  called #Bacchon described as a youth or young man in his late teens an ephebe wearing a cape. I saw this image of a statue found at Tralles and thought this could be very similar to the cape Bacchon wore and perhaps his posture and character described as thoughtful and respectful. 

Do read Plutarchs" Amatorious ?

If you can read Greek I'm doing a commentary in instalments over on my Metousia Patreon  in the Hellenika tier.

Themis of Rhamnous

There are surprising few images of the Titans and Titanesses in Greek art.

One of the rare exceptions is this statue of #Themis from a temple at Rhamnous in Attica which seems to have one of the few places a Titan was actively worshipped.

The position the missing arm and the surviving hand suggest he may have been holding objects in one or both hands perhaps looted because it was ivory or gold?

It dates to the Classical era.

Artemis or Aphrodite with Bird you decide

This image could been Artemis as lady of the Beasts or Aphrodite with a dove.

In the Archaic period Artemis wasn't always depicted as a huntress with bow and arrow.

While it was found near a temple to Artemis that site is noted for a diversity of art depicting a variety of gods so its not impossible that a statute of Aphrodite might be on the precincts of the temple to another deity. This happens at several sites.
