Initially the body is built like a javelin thrower. After a slight anamorphosis, breasts still perched high under the arms are plated on a torso of an athlete normally heavily muscled hips, however, markedly attenuated in this case, which gives it its elongated shape. In Greek art, the male body that forms the single most desirable model, is the absolute cannon of beauty: the body is supposed to be so perfect that it is sufficient in itself!
