Cleveland Museum of Art

Two Wrestlers by Unknown Artist. The image shows a small sculpture of two men wrestling. The men are carved from a light-colored material, possibly ivory or bone, and have a smooth texture. They are both nude and have short hair. The man on the left has his arms wrapped around the other man's shoulders and waist, while the man on the right has his arms around the other man's back and arm. The man on the right is leaning forward, with his right leg bent and his left leg straight. The man on the left has his legs bent. The base of the sculpture is flat and rectangular. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
