Greek Shield

Ancient Greek votive shield exhibited at the Archaeological museum at Delphi, Φωκίδα.

Bronze votive 'Herzsprung' shield (after the homonymous area of northern Europe where such a shield was found) with embossed decoration of concentric circles and acute angles. The earliest examples of this type were found in Cyprus as grave offerings. At Delphi such shields had a votive character. Late 8th century B.C.

To perceive depth, cross eyes and superpose right image seen with left eye over left image seen with right eye.
