The Parthenon Frieze. Block S XXVIII
Image
Here we rely on the drawings of Carrey to fill in the missing scenes. Two chariots are shown (the third and fourth, one on each block), one behind the other, already moving with their charioteers (68 and 71) and hoplites (69 and 72) on the chariot and the marshals (70 and 73) standing on the invisible side of the horses. The first (70) is turned toward the right and the second (73) toward the left with right hand outstretched toward the biga.
