Esempi
The Getty Museum was offered an ancient Greek marble of a standing youth, a kouros .
The imagery has an affinity with Cycladic sculpture, with the forms of the archaic kouros , with the masks of the Luba from Zaire, and many other forms of expression evolved by rustics as opposed to urbanites.
For example, he tells of art experts who examine a purported 6th century B.C. Greek kouros statue and instinctively know it's a fake.
Vitality is likewise conveyed by the phallic morphology and upright surge of the fragmentary kouros at Olympia, shot in profile and appearing dark brown against a radiant background.
In 1993 Federico Zeri, the Italian art historian, resigned as a Getty trustee after it bought a Greek kouros he believed was bogus.
