This form of rendering of the god was known as Apollo 'citharados' or 'playing the lyre'. His robe falls below his waist leaving his genitals exposed. His sandals are the most attractive part of his attire. The buckle of his left sandal, his shoulder-belt and his face still bear traces of reddish brown paint. Traces of reddish-brown and blue paint can be distinguished on the lyre as well.
Statues are reproductions of original statues.
This mixture gives statues an antique outlook and a texture as same as marble gives. The originals of these statues are exhibited in several museums.
