FRAGMENTS OF PARTHENON FRIEZE. 207

left shoulder to half-way down the right thigh ; drapery
hangs from the left shoulder and falls down the hack to
the waist. This figure has stood on the right foot; the
left leg appears to have been bent. This metope, as
drawn by Carrey, appears to have contained a nearly
nude male figure, standing, and a draped figure of a
woman, or citharist, holding a lyre.
Michaelis, pi. 3, xvii.

3. Metope XVII. Fragment, possibly part of a lyre;
apparently this is the object held in the hands of the
draped figure of this metope. There are traces of fingers
at the back.

4. Metope XX. Fragment of right hand holding the end
of a scroll. This metope, as drawn by Carrey, contained
two draped figures, holding scrolls.

Michaelis, pi. 3, xx.

5. Metope XXIV. Torso of Lapith. In the complete
metope, as drawn by Carrey, the Lapith holds the fallen
Centaur by the hair, and places his left foot on his body.

Michaelis, pi. 3, xxiv.

6. Head of Lapith, perhaps from Metope Xo. 305. Found
in the excavations on the Acropolis, of 1889.

Height, 7j inches.

Marble Fragment of Frieze.

344. Head of a youth, looking to the left, in low relief.
This fragment probably belongs to one of the horsemen
in the north frieze. It is placed by Michaelis (pi. 13)
in the space between slabs xxvi. and xxviii. This head
was formerly in the possession of Mr. Steinhaiiser, at
Karlsruhe.

Height, 5f inches.
