common type, in which the hand reaches to the foot
behind the axis of the body. In the more usual types

makes the figure stand on the right leg, and raise the left foot
behind, which seems incompatible with the pose of the torso ;
Reinach, Ne'cropole de Myrina, test, p. 285; Klein {Praxiteles,
p. 268) enumerates examples of this type but makes a confusion
as to the arms.
1581. Aphrodite unfastening her sandal. She stands on the
right leg, with the left leg raised. The left band is
preserved resting on a sttpport, perhaps a term, half
covered with drapery. The right hand must have been
extended towards the left foot. Both arms, the left foot
and the right leg from the knee to the ankle are wanting.
Late work.—Antarados.

p. 349, fig. 2.
