The Victorious Youth, also known as Atleta di Fano, Lisippo di Fano, or Getty Bronze, is a Greek bronze sculpture, made between 300 and 100 BCE, currently displayed at the Getty Villa Museum in Pacific Palisades, California. It is believed to have originally depicted an Olympic runner who held a victor's palm branch in his left arm. His right hand reaches to touch the winner's olive wreath on his head.Photo credit: J.
