A white marble statue of a nude male figure, identified as the Apoxyomenos, stands in an indoor gallery within the Vatican Museums, Città del Vaticano, Vatican City. The muscular figure is depicted in a contrapposto pose, with its weight on the right leg (viewer's left), and the left leg extended backward. The head is turned to the right with a neutral expression, and both arms are bent inward towards the chest, suggesting the action of scraping. A tree-trunk-like marble support is situated between the figure's legs, connecting to a rectangular base. The background consists of a wall clad in distinct grey and white veined marble, exhibiting a wavy, organic pattern. To the left, a light grey marble architectural column or pilaster is partially visible.
