We just learned about the Statue of Zeus at Olympia.
Another sculpture from the Hellenistic Art time is the Poseidon of Melos.
Poseidon in Greek mythology was a god of the sea.
The statue is made of marble, and is over 8 feet tall.
The statue's right arm is lifted up to hold a trident that was lost.
He is looking into the distance with a strong powerful pose.
