Funerary relief of Apelles from Herakleia ~ c. 110 BCE

Apelles holds a scroll(?) in his left hand and also rests his left foot on a cylinder, while resting his right hand on a herm with a youthful head.

Inscription reads: Ἀπελλῆ Θεμίσωνος / Ἡρακλεῖε χρηστὲ / χαῖρε (this is for ancient Greek fans, I can’t translate Greek!)

🏛 Kunsthistorisches Museum, inv. I 753
