Apollo of Cyrene
- Roman copy of a Hellenistic original of about 200-150BC
- The British Museum
The god Apollo is rendered as a muscular young man. However, the feminine sensuality is displayed here by his over-emphasized hips. He is shown nude with the exception of a cloak wrapped around his hips which falls below the waist. As the god of music, he is shown playing a lyre, with a python nestled below. The fingers (now lost) of the left hand must have touched the strings of the ornamented lyre, the latter having been placed on a pillar.

Apollo rescues his mother Leto from the giant Tityus. The god is depicted as a youth with long, uncut hair, a crown of laurel and a bow in hand. The giant, draped in a leopard-skin cape, grasps Leto by the shoulder. The offending hand is pierced by three arrows. The goddess attempts to pull away and lifts her veil. Her sacred tree, the palm, stands just behind her.
