The most important sculpture is the famous Apollo of Veii, and I suggest focusing your attention on it for a moment. The god is depicted as he is walking, and he probably held a bow in his arms, which are unfortunately missing. Look at how elegantly the folds of his robe are depicted, and how his smile, hairstyle, and the definition of his features recall archaic Greek art. Yet his separated legs and athletic body sharply contrast the traditional stability and frontal view of Greek sculpture, and give Apollo's body a vibrant dynamic sense that is accentuated by the fact that the statue is presented in a profiled position.
