Museum information sign reads: “From the Antikythera shipwreck. The figure has been identified with Perseus, who would have been holding the head of Medusa. More probably, however, it depicts Paris, who would have been holding the “apple of Strife”, ready to award it to the most beautiful goddess, Aphrodite. Attributed to the Sikyonian sculptor Euphranor.
About 340 – 330 BCE.
The restoration of the statue was completed in 1953 under the financial assistance of a member of the Greek community abroad John Lagonikos.”
