'This statue was found … in the Temple of Apollo, and originally stood on a lofty base within the cella. The god is represented in a musing attitude, as if pausing between the strains of his music … This statue is probably a copy from some celebrated original, as two other nearly similar figures exist ... This statue when found was broken into 123 pieces, all of which have been rejoined since its arrival at the British Museum.'
