Funerary stele made of marble and found in Corinth, Peloponnese. A hoplite attacking to the left steps his foot on the nude body of a fallen enemy. The perspective rendering of the victorious warrior is remarkable. Individual details will have been executed in colour. The monument was erected for Alkias of Phokis, whose name is recorded in the inscription on the horizontal cornice of the pediment that crowns the stele. Corinthian workshop. Late 5th c. BC.
