Rhamnusian Nemesis

Explanation

at Rhamnus is set up a statue of Nemesis ten cubits high, all of stone, the work of Phidias, holding in her hand a branch of an apple-tree; from which Antigonus of Carystus says a small tablet was hung, bearing the inscription, "Agoracritus the Parian made this." It is no wonder; for many others have inscribed another's name on their own works. Probably Phidias made this concession to Agoracritus, since he was his beloved, and was much smitten with his favourites.
