Head of the Charioteer of Delphi. "The statue formed part of a group representing the Chariot of Polyzelus, tyrant of Gela, brother of Gelon and Hieron of Syracuse, after his victory in the Pythian Games in 478 or 474. The head greatly recalls the works of the Attic sculptor Critius. Note the inserted eyes, with white opaque glass for the cornea and coloured stones for the iris and pupil. The lips were overlaid with a film of red copper. Delphi Museum." From "The Civilization of Greece" by François Chamoux, 1960.
