This exquisite Marble Greek Male Garden Philopemen Statue depicts a heroic moment when the champion pulls a spear from his leg yet continues to fight on, winning the Battle of Sellasia despite injury. Such a male marble sculpture is undoubtedly admirable.
Although Philopemen was only about thirty years old at the time, David chose to portray him as an older man to emphasize his symbolic role as the last of the great Greek champions and the fall of Greek civilization. Philopemen was a skilled Greek general and statesman who served as strategos of the Achaean League eight times. From the time of his appointment as strategos in 209 BC, Philopemen helped the Achaean League become an important military power in Greece. An anonymous Roman called him “the last of the Greeks.”
In 1832 David received a commission from the French government for a statue of the Achaean general Philopoemen of Megalopolis. This marble sculpture continues that legacy, restoring every detail to honor the heroic final champion of Ancient Greece.
