kouros teriminin İngilizce İngilizce sözlükte anlamı

a sculpture of a naked youth in Ancient Greece, the male equivalent of a kore

Archaic Greek statue representing a standing male youth. These large stone figures began to appear in Greece 700 BC and closely followed the Egyptian style of geometrical, rigid figures. Later forms reflect the Greeks' increased understanding of human anatomy and are more naturalistic. Kouroi sometimes represented the god Apollo, but more commonly served as votive offerings or grave markers. See also kore
