Resumen de Una nuova copia del tipo “Giovane di Hierapetra” a Roma, Villa Savorgnan di Brazzà
The contribution discloses a hitherto unpublished copy in marble of a statuary type known above all thanks to the discovery of a bronze at Hierapetra, depicting a young man completely wrapped in his cloak, without an underlying garment. The new copy is kept in Villa Savorgnan di Brazzà (Rome) and is very significant for the conservation of the head. This is added to the two already known marble copies, both discovered in Rome (Budapest, Museum of Fine Arts and Museo Nazionale Romano, Terme di Diocleziano). The article, after a review of the copies never completed so far, deals with the dating of the archetype, taken up for young people on some funerary reliefs especially from Smyrna, and tackles the question of its identity again
