Packet 4: Bonus 3
This artist's model Phryne (“FRY-knee”) was charged with “introducing a new god” named Isodaites during her trial for impiety. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name this ancient sculptor who used Phryne as a model for his Aphrodite of Knidos (“NYE-doss”). Scholars have debated whether this Athenian created a sculpture of Hermes and the Infant Dionysus.
ANSWER: Praxiteles (“prak-SIT-uh-leez”)
[10e] Praxiteles created a sculpture of this figure as Sauroktonos (“saw-rok-tonus”) or “the lizard slayer.” A “Belvedere” sculpture by Leochares (“Lee-oh-KAR-eez”) depicts this Greek god of music.
ANSWER: Apollo [accept Apollo Belvedere or Apollo Sauroktonos]
[10h] Praxiteles’ Hermes and the Infant Dionysus contains a “knot” named for this mythological figure. The ancient Roman sculptor Glykon created a depiction of this figure named for the Farnese (“far-NAY-zay”) family.
