Torso of a Greek athlete of the Diadumenes type after Polykleitos, Prado National Museum.
Polykleitos was a Greek sculptor of antiquity, active in the 5th century BC. He hailed from Argos and is considered one of the great masters of classical Greek sculpture. Polykleitos was renowned for his attention to anatomical detail and his pursuit of the ideal of harmonious beauty in his works.
Among his most famous creations are the Doryphoros (or Diadumenos) and the Discophoros, which depict athletes in dynamic poses.
Polykleitos also developed the Canon of Polykleitos, a system of ideal proportions for human sculptures. His work had a significant influence on Greek art and has continued to inspire artists throughout history.
