NOTES
Foto sup 2400, verso del supporto secondario: nota anonima manoscritta: "N. Mus.m 1 N° 218 N. C. Apollo from Andros, like the Belvedere Mercury. He was found in 1833, is rather larger than lifesize and is of Parian marble. He resembles the Hermes of Olympia and is probably of the school of Praxiteles. They call him the finest statue in the Museum".
