In Greek mythology, Meleager was a hero venerated in his temenos at Calydon in Aetolia. He was already famed as the host of the Calydonian boar hunt in theepic tradition that was reworked by Homer. This larger than life size torso fragment is identified as being of the Hero. The subject was identified after the 5th century sculpture by Skopas of Paros, standing with the weight on his right leg and fragmentary hand resting behind his right hip with the palm up. The largest giveaway is the torso wearing a chlamys fastened with a brooch on the right shoulder and draped over the left arm, a boar spear formerly held in his left hand.   This object is part of "Scan The World". Scan the World is a non-profit initiative introduced by MyMiniFactory, through which we are creating a digital archive of fully 3D printable sculptures, artworks and landmarks from across the globe for the public to access for free. Scan the World is an open source, community effort, if you have interesting items around you and would like to contribute, email [email protected] to find out how you can help.

EN: Scientist passionate of computer graphic and science simulation and visualization. I started doing computer grqphic at 19, in 1993. Passing from POV-RAY to LightWave, Houdini, 3DStudio, 3DS Max, Blender. In 2014, I have started 3D scanning with first a Kinect from Microsoft and afterward moved to photogrammetry. Photogrammetry is more flexible and I use mainly 123D Catch and Memento beta, both from Autodesk. In 2015, I started 3D printing with a Solidoodle Press. FR: Scientifique travaillant dans une universite. Je suis passionne par les images de synthese depuis 1993 commencant avec POV-RAY, passant par LightWave et 3DSMax. Depuis 2009, je suis exclusivement sur Blender. En 2014, j' ai decouvert le scan 3D via la Kinect et tres vite j'ai change pour la photogrammetrie. La photogrammetrie permet de faire des scan 3D plus facilement avec un simple appareil photo. J' utilise principalement 123D Catch et Memento beta, les deux produit par Autodesk. En 2015, j'ai debute avec l'impression 3D avec une Solidoodle Press
