Moschophoros is an ancient Greek statue commonly known as The Calf Bearer. It was excavated in fragments in the Perserschutt in the Acropolis of Athens in 1864. The statue, dated c. 560 BC and estimated to have originally measured 1.65 meters in height, is now in the Acropolis Museum in Athens, Greece.
The condition of the Moschophoros is poor and broken in some areas. The legs are missing below the knees on both sides. The hands are broken off. The genitals and the left thigh have separated from the whole sculpture. The lower half of the face is chipped off. The foot with a plinth is connected to base. The calf is well preserved, while Moschophoros's eyes are absent.The rest of the sculpture is in a fine state.
