The Wickford Glyptothek in Munich
The Pediment Sculptures from the Temple of Aphaia at Aegina

The Archaic pediment sculptures depicting warriors in battle at the First and Second Troyan Wars were retrieved from the Temple of Aphaia at Aegina and brought to München in 1811. The original reconstruction of the East and West Pediment has now been discredited, and a newer, more authentic reconstruction can now to be seen in the Glyptothek in Munchen.

Here, for your study, are photos of what remains of the more impressive warriors that graced those temple pediments taken from angles that have particular appeal to those who delight in the contemplation of the male nude body!
