Zeus

5th-4th century BCE or modern (Classical or modern) H: 6 7/8 in. (17.4 cm) Citation Source image

This nude, bearded male figure raises one arm as though to hold a staff. The authenticity of this piece has been questioned due to the color of the metal (yellow), the lack of pegs on the feet, the style and irregularities of the surface.
