A full-length, polished white marble statue of Perseus with the Head of Medusa stands against a plain, light brown-grey wall, illuminated from above, within the Vatican Museums in Città del Vaticano, Vatican City
Short TermA full-length, polished white marble statue of Perseus with the Head of Medusa stands against a plain, light brown-grey wall, illuminated from above, within the Vatican Museums in Città del Vaticano, Vatican City. The male figure, Perseus, is depicted with a muscular, nude physique, his genitals covered by a carved fig leaf. He wears a winged helmet on his head and looks towards his right. His right hand holds a sword, its hilt visible, with the blade resting along his right leg. His left arm is extended upwards and forward, holding the severed head of Medusa by its hair, which is represented by snakes. A draped cloak hangs over Perseus's left arm and shoulder, falling to his mid-thigh. The statue rests on an unseen base. The background wall is unadorned, providing a neutral backdrop.
