Something wrong?A sculptor whose hand shaped Alexander the Great's court image, yet whose actual work exists now only in Roman copies and disputed bronzes - including one that surfaced in an Adriatic fishing net in 1964.

Lysippos worked in the 4th century BC, part of a trio with Scopas and Praxiteles that closed the Classical Greek era and opened the door to the Hellenistic. His workshop was large, his students many, and the appetite for his style so fierce that replicas circulated even in his lifetime - made by hands outside his circle, then copied again under Rome. That popularity became his curse for posterity: identifying his actual touch in the surviving marble and bronze is a puzzle of attribution, workshops, and later markets. The Victorious Youth, a bronze that resurfaced around 1972, has been tentatively linked to him, one of the few threads connecting a name to metal.
