The Parthenon Sculptures (aka the "Elgin Marbles")

At the British Museum, 
Mr. Hunter visited the Parthenon sculptures and friezes that have commonly
 and controversially been known as the Elgin Marbles

Mr. Hunter and some horsemen of the north frieze.



The figures on the right are the goddesses Hesta, Dione, and Aphrodite.
