A mysterious statuette of a Spartan general, now in Hartford's Wadsworth Atheneum. I'd like to thank interim Chief Curator Matthew Hargraves for his assistance in the making of this video. The statuette is cataloged as:
Draped Warrior, c. 510-500 BCE. Greek, probably Sparta. Bronze. Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, Hartford, CT. Gift of J. Pierpont Morgan, 1917.815
