Reverse description Youthful Herakles depicted standing in a frontal pose, nude save for the Nemean lion's skin draped over his extended left forearm. He holds a club upright in his lowered right hand and grasps a strung bow in his left hand. An owl, emblem of divine favour, is shown in flight to the right above his raised right arm. The composition exemplifies the heroic type standard to Herakleian nomoi, with bold, confident modelling of the musculature.
