カリュドーンの猪
Poussin saw in it a canon of ideal proportions and in 1683, Gérard Audran included it in his collection of engravings representing the "Proportions of the human body measured from the most beautiful statues of antiquity", meant for young sculptors. Winckelmann recognised it as a statue "of the first class" and much admired the head, "undoubtedly one of the most beautiful heads of a young man from Antiquity", even though he criticised the working of its feet, stomach and legs In Winckelmann's time the statue's identification as Antinous had already been disproved, and the statue was interpreted instead as a Meleager, hero of the hunt for the Calydonian Boar. It was finally identified as Hermes by the scholar Ennio Quirino Visconti, in his catalogue of the Museo Pio-Clementino (1818–1822).
