The crook and apple show that the sculpture represents Paris. In Greek mythology, he was a prince of Troy, but grew up as a shepherd. The three goddesses Athena, Hera and Aphrodite asked him to decide which of them was the most beautiful. The prize was a golden apple with the inscription To the fairest. Athena tried to bribe Paris with wisdom and Hera with power. However, Paris chose Aphrodite’s gift: love and marriage to the beautiful Helen.
These 3D scans have been produced with an Artec Eva with the ambition to produce a digital representation as close to the original as possible. However, the presented scans are not to be regarded as duplicates as due to inaccessible areas etc deviations from the original might occur
