We learnt to sail in 1975, have owned a variety of boats over the years from small dinghies to our last 32 foot keel boat, which we sold in 2001. Since then we have chartered. Must go sailing again soon.

Young athlete holding the "halteres", the tools used by jumpers to increase their athletic performances. His right knee is bent and he is leaning forward. In front of him there is a disc decorated with an owl around which six letters (a no-sense inscription) are painted; a sponge, a strigil and an aryballos of the Attic type are suspended in the background. Beautiful lines in relief for the contours of the face, the shoulder and the right arm, and for the inside of the left arm.

A happy Rajasthani youth in traditional clothes posing in front of the Vijay Stambh (Victory Tower) in Chittaurgarh fort, Rajasthan, India. Chittaurgarh is probably the most romantic of all the hundreds of forts of Rajasthan. It is the epitome of Rajput valour and pride. Thrice in the history of the fort did hundreds of women folk of this fort happily performed 'jauhar' by jumping into burning pyre rather than be taken captives and be violated by the winning invaders!

The slab is dedicated to a young winner of the pirrycke dance, or pyrrhichios, contest of the Great Panathenaia. In the middle, a nude youth carrying a shield stands upright on the shoulders of another youth facing right. They are followed by a third, nude youth holding a shield and wearing a helmet, the crest of which billows behind.
The scene is from the pyrrhichios contest, and depicts the moment of victory for one of the contestants, shown here celebrating and standing on the shoulders of one of his companions. According to the inscription carved at the top, this dedication was erected by the choregos, a wealthy citizen of Athens who financed the organization of theatrical performances or games during festivals, after a contest in the Great Panathenaia, a festival held every four years:
… αις παίδων χορηγῶν
Παναθήναια τὰ Μεγάλα.
Part of another, obscure inscription is preserved on the right side of the slab:
… λληνε...
ἐν ἄστει...
ἐνίκα
᾿Αμύμω...
According to this, the same choregos seems to have won another victory, though this time at a different major festival, the urban or Great Dionysia.

WStatue of a youth, a Roman marble replica of a Greek bronze statue of about 440BC.
. He stands on the left leg, with the body thrown rather forward, and the right foot dragging behind. The head, which is of an ideal type, with short curly hair, looks downwards, and to the right. The left arm hangs by the side. The right arm, which was separately attached, is wanting from the middle of the deltoid. The stem of a palm-tree is by the left leg. The figure is very pleasing, but there is an undue exaggeration of sentimentality in the pose. In parts the execution is weak, as in the conventional treatment of the central line down the body. The separating line between the abdomen and the thigh, which is always accentuated in the antique, is here greatly exaggerated.
The question of the school and correct restoration of the figure has been much discussed. It has been restored as a youth placing a fillet or a wreath upon his head, and has thus been connected with the statue of the youth Kyniskos, a victorious boy boxer at Olympia (460 B.C. ?). The boy has also been restored as holding a strigil to his hair which seems an unsuitable and improbable position. He has been interpreted as a Narkissos of the school of Myron, who raises his hand to his forehead to shade his eyes, while admiring his own reflection in a pool of water. The subject, however, is improbable, and a figure in this position could not see itself reflected in water. The figure has also been regarded, without evidence, as the "nudus talo incessens " of Polycleitos mentioned by Pliny. Lately it has been suggested that the exaggerations and defects noted above mark the work of an eclectic school, such as that of Pasiteles, and that the composition seems to call for a second figure to complete it on the left.
